Lot of about 80 vintage postcards and ephemera from the Portland Expo. Four souvenir folding post card folios. A wooden postcard. The Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition was a worldwide exposition held in Portland in 1905 to celebrate the centennial of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. During the exposition's four-month run, it attracted over 1.6 million visitors, and featured exhibits from 21 countries. Portland grew from 161,000 to 270,000 residents between 1905 and 1910, a spurt that has been attributed to the exposition.
