The Expo must have been a wonderful scene in 1909, but it was a shame that most of the buildings were only temporary for the Expo and torn down afterwards. Of course, what remained is still on the U.W. campus. I just started posting the story on tumblr. Thanks for the pictures!

One) Those exhibits look really popular. Look at all the visitors checking out the fisheries exhibit! Two) We should all wear top hats again. Two points.
