COLUMBIA EXPOSITION INTERNET RESOURCES
Richard Giles submitted these links in response to Jerry Fochtman query about U.s. treasury Department exhibits at the 1893 Columbian Exposition. Thanks.
-Editor
I only found a paragraph or so about the Treasury exhibits (o p478), but it's an interesting read regardless.
