The Pan-American Exposition photograph album (14 x 18 cm) contains 33 photoprints taken by an amateur photographer of the 1901 Pan American Exposition in Buffalo, N.Y. Included are a nighttime view of the exposition; a city view featuring streetcars; candid photographs of children and images of houses, possibly in Ossining, N.Y.; and two images of Sing Sing Prison. One loose photo is identified as a church in Ossining, N.Y. Of note is an interior photograph of a bedroom dresser with many portrait photographs, and alarm clock, and hair brush displayed facing the last page of the album, which in turn features a portrait of a man with light colored eyes and a mustache.

The album has a gray cover with the printed title "Photographs" in white ink, and is housed in a pale blue cardboard box.
