Second advertisement poster from the Industrial Promotional Campaign of 1929-1930 for Alameda County. The catch phrase for the poster is "Billions of Gallons of Pure Sierra Water." The ad states that Alameda County and especially Oakland have access to gallons of water from the Sierra Nevada mountains made possible by the completion of the Mokelumne River Water Project and the Pardee Dam. This is yet another good reason for industry to move to Alameda County. A drawing of Pardee Dam also appears. The donor's father was the graphic designer for the posters, E. Adams.

Used: Alameda County | Oakland
