A 'Fine Art and Industrial Exhibition' was held in Huddersfield in 1883. The
records of that Exhibition, along with the records of Huddersfield
Mechanics' Institution which sponsored it, are held in the University of
Huddersfield Archives. Lists of these records and others held in the
University Archives are listed at

In imitation of the Crystal Palace Great Exhibition of 1851, Salisbury held
its own "Exhibition of Local Industry, Amateur Productions, Works of Art,
Antiquities, Objects of Taste, Articles of Vertu etc" in October 1852. Does
anyone know of other provincial copies? References would be gratefully
received. With thanks Jane Howells
