Campbell's illustrated history of the World's Columbian Exposition : compiled as the exposition progressed from the official reports, and most profusely illustrated with copperplate engravings
Campbell's Illustrated History of the World's Columbian Exposition is a 1894 Chicago illustrated account of the 1893 fair, compiled by James B. Campbell from official reports and published by the author for a general readership. Its pictures include formal portrait photographs of exposition officials and halftone views of the Electricity and Mines and Mining buildings under construction, framed by dense columns of text, with steel scaffolding and brick walls that show how large civic structures were built and how a designer might use the layered text-and-image page layout.
