Description: Rare - Illustrated Historical Register of Centenial Exposition 1876 Book - Art. Most beautiful engravings I have ever seen before in a book. There’s almost 800 engravings / illustrations drawn expressly for this work by the most eminent artists in America. Congress of nations assembled in friendly competition in Philadelphia in 1876. The great works illustrating the exhibitions of London and Paris are only obtained at a cost far exceeding the purse of the ordinary book-buyer. Lavishly illustrated by the pencils of the best living artists, the Historical Register offers its services to the public as the only complete and permanent record of the magnificent events it chronicles, and the industrial works describes. The book could be taken apart and each art piece could be sold separately. There’s 4 pages at the start of the book that looks like a kid was coloring. The book binding is not in great shape at all. There’s 324 pages in the book. It measures 16” by 11” and about 1.5” thick.
