The Exposition; An Elegant Illustrated Souvenir View Book of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition at San Francisco. Official Publication.
San Francisco: Robert A. Reid, Official Publisher of View Books, 1915. Unpaginated, perhaps a hundred pages, coated paperstock throughout with captioned b&w photography and a splendid colorized centerfold panorama. Softbound in 9x12 inch grey Yapp-edged wraps decorated in blue and brown with titling gilt, externally somewhat edgeworn with tiny tears at head, tail and foredge. Front and back covers are reflected from textblock revealing rusted staples, in three places the rust has seeped thru wraps and is visible in small stains. The color panorama is in perfect shape, having been "stubbed in" thus escaping the staples. Title page (saving stapled areas and a faint corner-tip erasure) and all leaves are near-fine, plates are clear and free of any marks, a good to very good copy.
