This catalogue, reissued in its third edition, contains entries for British and foreign participants at London's International Exhibition in 1862. A diverse range of industries - including mining, engineering, textiles, printing and photography - are represented. Also featuring many contemporary advertisements, this publication remains an instructive resource for social and economic historians.

Excerpt from The Illustrated Catalogue of the Industrial Department, Vol. 4: Foreign Division But there is particular admiration due to the excellent organization and superior artistic capacity of the I. R. Court and State Printing Office, which alone was able to print three volumes of this extension in four weeks and in three languages. The alphabetic index contains all names; but of other references the heading words only. In order to retain the same number for each exhibitor in all the three catalogues, which they have in the English Official Exhibition Catalogue, it was sometimes necessary to deviate from the alphabetic order to which some exhibitors belong, but there is always reference to be found at the proper place.
