From May 10 to Nov. 10, 1876, in Philadelphia, Pa., was held the first "World's Fair". The fair was created to celebrate the signing of our Declaration Of Independence and our free Democratic way of life.
This wonderful piece of memorabilia from that fair is a scarf filled with symbolism. At the top is our American Eagle, shield and arrows...symbolizing freedom and keeping us from ever being enslaved by another country. The border is a continuum of stars with a blue and white striped background.
The Memorial Hall was the focal point of the exhibition...the dates of 1776 ...1876...our hundred year celebration of one of the greatest documents ever written by man.
