“Miniatures, Lewis & Clark Centennial, Portland, Oregon, 1905,” closed 4-3/4” x 3-3/4/” with 24 accordian folded images of the various buildings at the exposition. While not officially considered a World's Fair by the Bureau of International Expositions, it is often informally described as such; the exposition attracted both exhibits and visitors from around the world. During the exposition's four-month run, it attracted over 1.6 million visitors, and featured exhibits from 21 countries. Portland grew from 161,000 to 270,000 residents between 1905 and 1910, a spurt that has been attributed to the exposition.
