Provincial exhibition grounds in 1950
This overview shows the grounds for the 1950 edition of the provincial exhibition. Some buildings are easily recognizable, such as the Palais des Beaux-Arts (formerly the Pavillon des Transports) in the top left-hand corner, and the Palais de l’Agriculture on the right. The image also illustrates how widespread the automobile was becoming in Québec City. Cars fill the parking lot in the background, while a booth sells them in the foreground.
