History
The Idaho State Commission to the Panama-Pacific International Exposition organized Idaho’s official exhibit, which included displays in agriculture, mining, timber, and related industrial resources. Materials from Idaho’s exhibit were placed in the Agricultural Palace and forestry sections of the fair. The commission sought to present the state’s natural and economic assets to a national and international audience, aligning with early twentieth-century strategies of state-sponsored publicity and exhibition.
