Recent Additions to  SPECIAL COLLECTIONS
  McCabe, James D  THE ILLUSTRATED HISTORY OF THE CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION...
Philadelphia
: National Publishing Co., 1876, 
682 pgs., 22.5 cm.
Call Number: 909.81 M113i 1876

A good example of the elaborate souvenir gift books produced after the Centennial Exhibition. Contains a general history of the fair with woodcut illustrations. This specific title was noteworthy enough, that a reprint was published in 1975.  

 

Sandhurst, Phillip T and Others THE GREAT CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION : Critically Described and Illustrated. 
Philadelphia :  Ziegler & Co., 1876, 
544 pgs.,  23.5 cm.
Call Number: 607.3474811 S217g 1876

Another example of the souvenir gift books published after the Centennial Exhibition. The exhibition is of interest to our University community, since the need for a local textile school was apparent after exposure to the European textile products shown at the fair.  

 
The Library also now receives VISIONAIRE, a limited edition conceptual art and fashion quarterly published in New York. However, due to its format it is not shelved with the other magazines.  It is available for inspection on request.  Since every issue is different, images of each new issue will be included in this list.
