1894 SAN FRANCISCO MIDWINTER INTERNATIONAL EXPO SIGHTS SOUNDS SUNSET CITY. Sights and Scenes of Sunset City. Oblong quarto, half black morocco over dark red pebbled cloth, tooled and lettered in gilt; [232] pp. Illustrated from hundreds of photographs throughout, some double page. 10×13 inches, patterned endpapers. The Midwinter International Exposition in San Francisco was similar to the World Fairs of the same time. It was staged in Golden Gate Park and covered several acres of land, presenting hundreds of exhibits mostly pertaining to California (some worldly) history, industry, agriculture and technology. Most of these exhibits, buildings, roller coasters, rides, etc. Were not built to last and are now forever lost to history and photographic images. It was attended by many thousands of people who enjoyed the unusual sights and grand scaled attractions. Originally issued in parts, this copy does not have a title page, as quite possibly none was issued. Light wear to pages including light soiling, chips, small tears; very good or better.
