I own an original copy of the "Photographs of the Worlds Fair" published and sold by subscription only by the "Werner Company" of Chicago. The copyright is 1894. The photographs in the Dover publication are far superior as to clarity as one would expect. The difference is the amount of photos taken of the various participants from around the world in my copy. There are 175 pages of photographs; many with multiple photos.As a child in the 1940s; I grew up in Hyde Park/Jackson Park area and visited the "Palace of Fine Arts"; AKA; "Museum of Science and Industry" many times and not until I read "The Devil in the White City" and the Dover photographic record did I realize how important the fair was to the city and to the world. These two books are well worth the purchase price.5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Comprehensive coverageBy Shakey FanThis is an okay pictorial collection of White City photographs. None were new to me; though. My chief complaint is that all of the most striking photographs are blown up to span two pages-- which means theyre cut right down the middle. I would have been happier with photographs oriented vertically to maximize the space on one page while preserving the image.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Wish I had seen this!By ewThis is a perfect companion to The Devil in the White City! Being able to see photographs as the buildings and grounds are described is fabulous. What an amazing feat!
