Description
1 view : col. ; 15 x 33 cm., on sheet 31 x 47 cm.<br>Bird's-eye view<br>Shows the Spokane area<br>Library's copy mounted on mat board<br>Not drawn to scale<br>In October of 1890, Spokane hosted the Northwest Industrial Exposition, just 14 months after the vast majority of the Spokane business district had burned to the ground in a major fire. As the name implies, this was primarily a northwestern exposition, drawing industrial exhibitors from mostly the neighboring states but also from as far away as Minnesota. This map was loosely bound within a hardbound promotional brochure from the exposition, and was apparently intended to be removed and framed.
