Coined a “visual extravaganza”, The Centennial was the first exhibition of its kind to give insight into the progress made during the century. All of the states and most nations were represented, with a diverse variety of exciting elements, including a giant Corliss steam engine, a Turkish scarf dancer, beautiful rock and mineral displays, and hundreds of replicas of animals and fish.
All in all, The Centennial was a wonderful mix of both the scientific and the artistic developments that occurred during the century that followed the crossing of the Delaware, the ratification of the Constitution, the Civil War -- the growth of America from a group of united Colonies to an international Superpower.
