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 commemorative account of the 1893 Chicago world's fair, compiled by James B. Campbell and published by the author in Chicago in 1894 for visitors and readers interested in the exposition. Its pictures are black-and-white halftone plates of fair buildings, lagoons, crowds, and livestock shows, with dense captioned text beside them, offering a designer clear examples of late nineteenth-century exhibition architecture, landscape layout, and crowd scenes.
