HK- 203, R-5. AU condition, aluminum. Depicts Electrical Building on obverse, Manufactures and Liberal Arts Buildings on reverse. 35 mm. The Manufactures and Liberal Arts building covered over 11 acres of exhibition space. The George Post-designed building brought together exhibitors from all around the world. There was a dual purpose to this building, as its name implies. Manufactured goods were displayed, with price tags for comparative shopping, next to exhibits which could roughly be categorized as being part of the humanities. Remington typewriters and Tiffany & Co. stained glass were under the same exhibition roof with the University of Chicago's 70-ton Yerkes telescope and Bach's clavichord. Goods pavilions, which contained everything from clothes to phonographs, were erected within the building by America, Germany, Austria, China, Japan, France, Russia, and England. Furniture from the palace of the King of Bavaria was displayed, as was the manuscript of Lincoln's Inaugural address and Mozart's spinet. This was the most eclectic of exhibits, combining goods for sale with items of historical and artistic interest. Daniel Manassillian Collection. State: Illinois City: Chicago Date: 1893 HWAC# 82779
