Two detailed maps on one sheet. At left is a street map of the city of Philadelphia extending as far west as Fairmount Park, the site for the Centennial Exposition celebrating the Declaration of Independence. At right is a map of the surrounding region, including the suburbs of Chestnut Hill, Germantown, Frankford, and Camden. The legend for this map, which locates various railroads and city wards, is written in English, French and German in order to appeal to a global audience. The Centennial Exposition was the first World’s Fair hosted in the United States. Nearly ten million people attended from around the world.
