image "The Pan-American Exposition Company" stock certificate no. 4 on thick card stock for 50 shares ($10 each) granted to Leslie Bennett on June 30 1899 and signed by George Williams (Treasurer) and John G Milburn (President), an ornate border of the expo logo and with a 25c Battleship revenue stamp affixed, trivial bit of edge wear, Very FinernrnThe Pan-American Exposition was held from May 1-Nov 2, 1901 on a 342-acre site in Buffalo NY. The fair featured the latest technologies, including electricity, and attracted nearly 8 million people. A midway provided rides and other entertainment; athletic events took place at a specially constructed stadium. The African, Eskimo and Mexican Villages were among the attractions. Some states as well as South and Central American countries had their own buildings. The Electric Tower was illuminated nightly by thousands of colored bulbs and floodlights. Unfortunately, the exposition is probably best remembered as the site of the assassination of William McKinley, the 25th President. (Image)
