Synopsis
In the early 1960s, thousands of construction workers and their families came to Oroville, in Northern California, to help build the largest earth-fill dam in the world. Located nine miles northeast of town, the Oroville Dam would be the cornerstone of the California State Water Project, which would provide flood control, electric power, recreation, and water to California residents. The project was so massive that it would reinvent the look of much of the area; require the building of roads, bridges, and railroads; inundate much of the area s history under hundreds of feet of water; and greatly effect the lives of the residents of Oroville. The successful completion of the project came at a price 34 construction workers died.", In the early 1960s, thousands of construction workers and their families came to Oroville, in Northern California, to help build the largest earth-fill dam in the world.

    I was pleasantly surprised by the quality! Silverware was as described. Packaged well and arrived quick! I'd purchase from this seller again. Unfortunately, I retired the items because someone gifted me a set. Seller accepted my return and promptly refunded me. Someone else had they're eye on this item. I hope they bought it. They're lovely!

    I loved my experience with RetroExpressway! Top notch eBay seller! First, it was a hella fun offer flurry. We were going back and forth and I could not stop laughing. Then I reached out to them and was replied to within seconds. They got my item shipped out right away. Item was better than I expected, a very new looking pair of used shoes. Like, I knew they were used and the pics looked good but these puppies are like brand new. Anyway, I highly recommend them. Thank you for the great kicks!
