Recipient was asked to invite others to “California’s San Diego Centennial Exposition July 4th 1934 to July 4th 1935”
Collier was Director-General of the 1915 Panama-California Exposition. In 1931, Collier proposed that a Centennial Exposition could do for San Diego’s waterfront what the 1915 Exposition had done for Balboa Park. Collier’s idea for a Centennial Exposition never really got off the ground. His idea, however, must have encouraged others. By July, 1934, Frank Drugan’s plans for the California-Pacific Exposition were well underway and Collier was not a part of it. Collier died in November, 1934.
