• 
  Folding brochure with 4 chromolithographed panels on one side, B&W panels on the other, showing technological advances during the 19th century, "The Woman's Century," with a better sewing machine apparently being the main benefit. 16x11 cm (folded).

  "All Over the World: Singer the Universal Sewing Machine" - [12] pp. circular chromolithographed booklet with a stunning bird's-eye view of the Niagara Falls region, scenes from the exposition, a map of North and South America, and women at their sewing machines. 11.5 cm in diameter, stapled self-wrappers.


• 
  Chromolithographed envelope for mailing the aforementioned items, but unused (though a bit darkened). 12.5x16.2 cm.

Beautifully executed chromolithographed advertising ephemera, especially notable for the bird's-eye view stretching from Buffalo to Lewiston, with a numbered key to 16 places including the exposition grounds, Niagara Falls, Ft. Erie, Grand Island, Goat Island, Niagara Gorge, etc.

Envelope very good, the other pieces fine or nearly so.
