    Overview of the Exposition
    The Centennial International Exhibition of 1876, the first official World's Fair in the United States, was held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia. It was officially the International Exhibition of Arts, Manufactures and Products of the Soil and Mine. It was held in
    Fairmount
    Park
    , along the
    Schuylkill
    River
    . About 10 million visitors attended, equivalent to about 20% of the population of the
    United States
    at the time (though many were repeat visitors).
    Consumer products allegedly first displayed to the public include:
    Alexander Graham Bell's telephone
    Remington Typographic Machine (typewriter)
    Heinz Ketchup
    Wallace-Farmer Electric Dynamo, precursor to (electric light)
