Is 4 images a bit much here? I think they're rather splendid images that give good information on the size and style of the exposition. If this should be displayed differently, I'm open to suggestions. -- Infrogmation 19:30 Nov 10, 2002 (UTC)
I like it, the only question is bandwidth. It loads fine on my cable modem. dml
The pictures even load quickly on a dial-up connection, but how can there be an article about this exposition without mentioning the human rights violations that occured in showcasing racial heirarchy. It was prominently featured in the Forest Park history museum, so it can't be too embarrassing for the city. -pjv

This is good info.
I am doing a project in school and this is very helpful.It has helped me a lot. So back off critics.
More info
there's plenty of information out there on the 1904 exhibition. Perhaps the article could be expanded with a table of contents and chapter headings?
Olmstead or Kessler grounds designer?
Were the grounds designed by Olmstead or Kessler? I had always heard Olmstead but the article cites Kessler. Olmstead died about the time of the fair.
