Ribbon-New Orleans-World's Industrial-Cotton Centennial Expo
Item #: NEW-0011784

Click image to enlarge
Nice scarce souvenir from the ill-fated New Orleans World's Fair.  The fringe in missing on the bottom and some one has added in pencil a date at the top of the ribbon.  Nice overall appearance but the biggest condition problem is the separation in the fold at the middle.  At present it is only halfway but clearly it is fragile.  Features President Grover Cleveland. Measures ten and a half inches long.  This exposition was riddled with scandals and the state treasurer absconded with a great deal of the money.

Portfolio Worlds Columbian Exposition-1898
Item #: NEW-0011605

Click image to enlarge
It would be hard to find a nicer copy of this view book of lithographs, including many in color of this exposition. The only problem I can note is that some of the color lithographic scenes produced some staining on the opposite pages. I have shown the page most affected, the others are quite moderate.
