Chicago: the exposition; Printed in Germany, 1893. Hardcover. Single long leaf of light cardstock, about 6.5x35 inches long, recto printed with heavily glazed b&w lithos and folded to 6.5x3.25 inches; images at either end are laid down on stiff cloth boards which enclose the concertina'd views. Upper board is decorated with lady showing one breast, and a cupid clutching a US shield. A poor-to-fair exemplar; the cardstock is quite acidic and fragile, and while it supports individual images well enough, has split away from both covers with one ragged loss, and further splits are developing. Complete as called for, with all faults. The scenes are exclusively of buildings, little sailing craft negotiating the lagoon-grid, one armored gunboat, and trees, with people shown as dots.

Hardcover, olive green cloth boards with gilt text on spine. The exterior shows scuffing and spotting along with edge and corner bumps/wear. The interior binding does have some pulling but there are no hinge cracks. Some of the pages are still quite tight, particularly around the illustrations, other areas are looser. There are no signatures or bookplates, no library markings, no handwriting found. Large foldout map at page 551 appears to have never been opened. There is some foxing present, although this is mainly limited to the end pages and pastedowns. Please note: this is volume 1 ONLY of a two-volume set.
