"In order to make French citizens aware of the importance of their colonial empire, expositions were organized from time to time to show what came out of these colonies, which products were exported and which administrative careers were available there for the young French. This was the last exposition of the kind before the war" (Colin Affichiste, p. 100). As a result of World War II, this exhibition never took place.
