1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition Souvenirs
We acquired these three rare woven silks from the estate of
a impassioned World's Fair collector. They are similar in style
to Stevensgraphs created in England during the latter half of
the 19th century. Other companies copied the form and created
their own designs. Each silk depicts a building at the fair or
an image of a St. Louis landmark. They are truly unique and wonderful
souvenirs.
