No, I mean the collapse of the real estate bubble, particularly in Southern California, from 1888 to 1893.

For a detailed account of this mania, I refer you to "Boom of the Eighties in Southern California" by Glenn S. Dumke, first published in 1944.

The late Glenn S. Dumke (1917 - 1989) lived to see the joke represented by the repeat boom of the 1980s.

He was a member of the history faculty at Occidental College from 1940 to 1950. In 1957 he became president of San Francisco State College, and in 1962 he was selected as chancellor of the California State Colleges.

He was the editor of "Mexican Gold Trail", co-author of "A History of the Pacific Area in Modern Times", and editor of a revised edition of Robert G. Cleland's "From Wilderness to Empire". He also wrote four "westerns" under the pen name of Glenn Pierce.
