Blue Book is turning 100! In celebration of this milestone, the Oregon
Secretary of State's Office will offer a limited edition commemorative version

Blue Book</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The first
Oregon Blue Book provides a window into life in Oregon a century ago. Dozens of
vintage images illustrate the state. These include scenes of Crater Lake, Mt.
Hood, the Columbia Gorge, and other sights. Many images depict the bounty of
Oregon's agriculture and timber industries while others tout the state's
hunting and fishing opportunities.</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Along with
the images, the 1911 Oregon Blue Book is full of text describing the beauty and
resources of the state in language that is both quaint and evocative. For
example: "High above the clouds towers snow-capped Mount Hood, magnificent
in its supreme eminence and in its beauty and ruggedness." The book
reports on every aspect of Oregon's economy and society a century ago. Thus,
the reader will find descriptions of 1911 transportation, agriculture,
livestock, fishing, dairy, education, labor, and taxation conditions, among
others.</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
