1888 Buffalo International Fair and Exposition

Buffalo, New York

A promotional brochure for the International Fair in Buffalo entices the potential visitor with the question “You remember the Centennial? This International Fair at Buffalo is to be the largest and grandest Exposition held the United States since then.“ The brochure goes on to state that it is to be more than a fair: “It is to be an Exposition, international in his character, of all the Arts and Industries in which the human race is engaged.“ One so-called dollar was struck in various compositions for this exposition. The details are cataloged in my 2023 book So-Called Dollars Volume I: United States Expositions. Click on the “View All” link below to see them.
