SOMETHING  EXTRA

   The 1871 - 1899 series of expositions were being advertised with posters that were hung up all over Cincinnati and, I am sure, around the country. Unfortunately I do not have images of the complete set and several of the actual posters are in pretty bad condition but they certainly are great examples of the lithography being done back then. All of these Companies were in Cincinnati. I have also found a couple of examples of the 1910 Exposition. 

   These items I am not sure who printed them.
