" De Haag, K. Fuhri, 1851, in-folio, (37,5 cm), (4)nn pp (index) + 200 pp, with numerous wood cut illustrations in the text. Printed in three colums. . Bound in contemporary half leather, with boards covered with marbled papere. Bindin gwith some wear, interior fine. A good copy. Very rare contemporary report in Dutch, on the first World Exhibition (London 1851). The lay out and illustrations bear a striking resemblance to similar editions in English (e.g. the London Illustrated News). This edition in Dutch underlines the enormous impact of the Exhibition. Hardly any Dutch visitors would undertake the costly and complicated voyage to London; but there was a market for in depth information about the exhibition."
