The great Centennial Exhibition
The Great Centennial Exhibition is a illustrated 1876 survey of the Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition, written by Phillip T. Sandhurst and A. M. J. Mueller and published in Philadelphia and Chicago by P. W. Ziegler for a general readership. Its engravings show industrial machinery such as a steam pump, a Gatling gun on wheeled carriage, a slotting machine and a steam hammer, drawn in clean black line with labelled parts and cutaway views that a designer could use for mechanical detailing, period typography and technical diagram layout.
