Original 1908 Sesqui-Centennial Official Program – City of Pittsburgh
Celebrate Pittsburgh’s rich heritage with this original 1908 official municipal program book, commemorating the 150th anniversary of the city’s founding (1758–1908). This historical piece covers events held between September 27 and November 25, 1908.
The program is packed with fascinating period advertisements (like the German National Bank), photographs of civic leaders, and insights into Pittsburgh’s industrial and commercial growth at the dawn of the 20th century. Notable mentions include law enforcement officials, fire chiefs, and local steel magnates.
