First Annual Harvest Festival
Bishop, California

You know Bishop!
It's the town that does things.
It is the metropolis of Inyo county. It is the most hospitable place you were ever in. It lies in the Owens valley, the land of plenty. This year has been particularly fruitful, and therefore we are going to celebrate. And you ought to be here. We want you to be here. Why don't you come? The First Annual Harvest Festival will be held in Bishop on Friday and Saturday, November 3 and 4, two days of jollification and thanksgiving. The latch string is out. We promise you a time which will be so good you'll never forget.
