Over 200 pp. Maroon cloth with gilt title; bevelled boards; all edges gilt. A photographic record of Chicago architecture, civic, commercial and private, in commemoration of the Chicago World’s Fair. An estimated 150 pp. of photogrpahs, many full-page. Pictures of World’s Fair installations are architect’s renderings, not photographs, since the book was evidently published in anticipation of the fair. A nice bright copy with minimal rubbing, with creases to rear free endpaper and rear fly-leaf.
