Scarce 1939 unused Curteich linen postcard of the 1939 World's Fair cake made by Bill Baker of the Soya and Lima Bean Bakery in Ojai, CA. The 1,000-lb. fruit cake, made in honor of the baking industry, was exhibited at the Golden Gate International Exposition in San Francisco. It was made from California products only and from the same recipe used in the cake sent from California to President and Mrs. Roosevelt each Christmas. The cake decorations took a year to make. It was five feet at the base, three feet high and three feet across on top of the cake. A desirable exposition, baking or Ventura County collectible in excellent condition.
