This photo by Frederick-Burkett Foto Service, circa 1930, shows farmers with their prize cattle at the California State Fair. The annual State Fair was the culmination of the yearly agricultural cycle where proud farmers brought their livestock, produce, and dairy products to be judged. A blue ribbon was a proud possession.
