"Philadelphia: Panorama of a Civilization" was a multi-location exhibit developed for the 1976 bicentennial celebration in Philadelphia by historic preservation architects George Thomas and Carl Doebley. Sponsored by the American Institute of Architects, the exhibit highlighted key buildings from different architectural "eras" in the history of Philadelphia. Portions of the exhibit were mounted at sites throughout the city; the photographs in this collection, showing buildings constructed between 1870 and 1895, were on display in Drexel's Main Building. The period from 1870 to 1895 was called the "Era of Drexel Institute" because of the impact of wealthy individuals like Anthony J. Drexel on the architectural development of the city at that time.
