The Centennial Exposition Philadelphia, PA 1876 (Fairground Photographs, Fairmount) 100 Years of USA

Howdy ya’ll! Today we’re going to dive back into the history of Philadelphia with a specific and enthralling focus on The 1876 Centennial Exposition, which celebrated 100 years of American Independence.

In my previous research, photographs from this World’s Fair, the first official one in The United States, were scarce, however upon a second dive I’ve accumulated over 180 unique and seldom seen photographs of The 1876 Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia.

Furthermore, a majority of these images are of the Stereoscope variety. We will discuss the brief yet eventful history of the 1876 World’s Fair, while examining the details of these historically important photographs in a very rare collection. I’d love to hear your thoughts and opinions in the comment section - Enjoy!
