Philadelphia's 1926 Sesqui-Centennial International Exposition (Postcard History Series)

[ebooks] Philadelphia's 1926 Sesqui-Centennial International Exposition (Postcard History Series) by James D. Ristine in Arts-Photography

Description

The Delaware River has been home to steamboats and canoes; swimmers and fishermen; and shipyards and factories for generations. Recreation and industry have long coexisted along its changing banks. Along the Delaware River presents the Delaware River corridor-from Hancock; New York; in the Catskill Mountains; to the mouth of the Delaware Bay-at the beginning of the twentieth century. Postcards; many nearly a hundred years old; are used to show a river system that both resembles and differs greatly from the one we know today.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. A great book that will stay in my collectionBy Kathleen D. BryceI discovered that some pictures that I inherited from my grandfather were from the 1926 Sesqui-Centennial. Having this book. helped me identify each building and statue that were in the pictures. He didnt take a picture of the huge liberty bell though. and I think it may not have been completed when he was there. A great book that will stay in my collection.
