1t is very comforting fact that the
art instinct in this country presaged the
value the great exposition would have
to the American public and prepared to
perpetuate it in faithfully executed
pictures. This work was conscientiously
done, and in Sleeps Worlds Fair
Photographed we have a volume that
Is instinct with a wealth Of outline and
detail that is marvellous.
1t can be truthfully said that the work
is one which amply satisfies the minds
Of the most critical in all its parts. The
views are done in that splendid way
that have made the Sleeps famous the
world over, and the text descriptive Of
the buildings and exhibits is all that the
most eXacung can ask. No photographs
work that may be put forth for the ac-
ceptance of the American people will
have anything like the merit Of this
splendid volume Of more than 500 pages
ana nearly 200 views taken by the best
experts with the camera in the world
IL has the further merit of being Of
hcially Endorsed by the worlds fair man
agement as the best and only authorized
series OF Photographic views in existence.
This is buttreSsed by the opinion in
newspapers in all parts Of the country.
whose editors unhesitatingly yield it
u u.

that are phenomenally fine specimens of
the Photographic art and recommend the
