This is a photograph album of the 1867 Exposition universelle in Paris, issued by the Paris publisher M. Léon et J. Levy and photographed by Pierre Petit, with inscriptions by Andrew Johnson and William Seward once owned by Abram Hewitt. The plates show exhibition halls, displays and machinery as period photographs. A designer could take from them the orderly grid of mounted photographs, the formal captions and the crowded, technical look of nineteenth-century world's fair interiors.
