Transcribed from the Official Guide to the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition - Manufactures Building: "The Manufactures building at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition is of French renaissance design with a circular pergola colonnade. Doric columns support trellis beams and flower-tubs. Hanging about the beams are festoons of flowering vines, adding to the artistic beauty of the building. The facades at either end of the building consist of a segmental arch fifty feet wide crowned by a pediment containing the official seal of the exposition worked out in staff. This is surrounded by a flowered wreath and acanthus arabesques. In the Manufactures building is a magnificent display of all manufactured articles. Beautiful tapestry carpets will be produced. Two silk weaving machines will show the methods used in the manufacture of silk embroideries. Knives and scissors will be manufactured and linen and drawn work will be displayed and produced. Burned leather goods will be manufactured as well as articles from fine woods of all kinds. The arts and crafts exhibit is one of the features of this building and the exhibit of silverware is the most complete assembled since the Chicago exposition. The method used in the printing of sheet music Is shown, and in this exhibit is a model printing plant. The exhibit of fine furniture is as complete as it is possible to secure choice articles and all kinds of musical instruments are displayed. The biograph is used to a great extent to show how the big factories are studying the social economy question and bringing their employees from hovels to comfortable homes. The Manufactures building contains 60,000 square feet of exhibit space besides the galleries. Manufactured articles of every kind are on exhibition."
