First five issues w/ self-printed colour-illustrated and lettered softcovers, remainder in black & white (minor shelfwear, rubbing, ex-lib stamps & markings, occasional annotations), still VG- set. First editions of this scarce run of Oregon Business land promotion periodicals extolling and touting the natural beauty, growth opportunities, local businesses, and new highways across Oregon from the Roaring 20's to the opening of the Great Depression. Often featuring decidedly "Oregon" booster clubs and activities such as the "Wild Cavemen" of Josephine County who dressed in "cavemen" garb inspired by local Native American legends of pre-Columbian ancestors; the "Lava Bears" in Bend; "The Pirates" in Coos Bay, and others. Also detailed are the developments of hydroelectric dams in the region; the newly opened Pacific Coast Silk Mill of the Pioneer Silk Co.; the massive reclamation project in Malheur County; the Trowbridge West-Made furniture Co., and rapid growth of paper companies. Of additional interest is the issue devoted to "Buying Oregon Products -- Key to Oregon Prosperity," surrounded by ads for many local companies and producers. This business journal appears to have flourished from 1922 to 1931 when it ceased publication after Nov. 1931 as the U.S. economy continued to spiral downwards.
