"Circulating: A Journey Through Time and Places" Step into the world of circulation as we explore various forms of transportation, literature, and historical landmarks. From London to New York, from steam trains to electric trams, join us on a captivating journey through different eras. In the bustling streets of London, Francis Nobles Circulating Library stands as a testament to the love for books and knowledge. Its trade card invites readers to immerse themselves in literary treasures that circulate among eager minds. A Bit of old Kensington captures the charm of yesteryears with its timeless photo. As we gaze upon it, we can almost feel ourselves circulating through the cobblestone streets, witnessing history unfold before our eyes. The book plate engraved by Patrick Sanderson transports us further back in time. It serves as a reminder that even in centuries past, knowledge had been circulating among those who sought it earnestly. E Pitts' trade card takes us across continents to New York City. The colored engraving showcases an innovative double way overhead railway system circulating along Seventh Avenue in 1872 - a marvel ahead of its time. Continuing our exploration of New York's transportation advancements is another engraving depicting an overhead railway circulating along Third Avenue during the same era. These images remind us how cities have always strived for efficient ways to circulate their inhabitants. Moving across Europe, we find ourselves amidst the vibrant streets of San Sebastian and Madrid where electric trams circulated at the turn of the 20th century. Witnessing these early forms of public transport reminds us how societies adapt and evolve over time. Zaragoza's Plaza de la Constitucion comes alive with an image capturing an electric tram with a trailer load circulating effortlessly through its heart. This scene symbolizes progress and connectivity within urban landscapes. Stepping away from modernity but not losing momentum is a Swiss steam train traversing through Gotthard Pass in 1910.
