Large collection of the legendary 1893 columbian exposition. Starting in upper left of the first gallery photo is a newspaper called the Worlds Columbian Exposition Illustrated. Lots of photos and quaint 19th century ads. To the right of that is a large paper fold out section called Dedicatory Supplement Of The Worlds C.E. Besides the incredible architecture on the back is a dedicatory poem. To the right of that is a brand new birds eye view of the fair with ID. Below that is an 1893 delicate fan with another birds eye view of the fair. It does have a tear along one seam and the wood spokes are coming unattached,however, all the paper is t and complete and just waiting for a backing. To the left of that is an 1893 dated print/photo on heavy stock paper. It is in perfect condition. Just above that is a narrow fold-out birdseye view dated 1892. To the left of that is a Chicago Tribune Magazine supplement from 2003 writing about the connection between the fair and the serial killer book. Between the supplement and the print is a detailed embossed book cover that contained all the prints/pages/postcards that are lined up along the bottom. All questions encouraged and answered.
