CHAPTER XIV THE PENNSYLVANIA MUSEUM : A GENERAL SURVEY THE Pennsylvania Museum and School of In- dustrial Art was chartered on February 27, 1876, and may be said to be the direct outgrowth of the Centennial Exposition of that year. Certainly the coincidence was fortuitous, for the nucleus of the present extensive collec...tions of the Museum con- sist of some of the most valuable exhibits from the International Exhibition of 1876, many of them having been presented by the exhibitors, while others ware purchased with funds raised for the purpose. The Pennsylvania Museum is the guest of the directors of Memorial Hall, which is situated in a historic part of the Fairmount Park, not far from the site of the one time residence of William Bing- ham, that attractive mansion, known as " Lans- downe, " built before the Revolution by John Penn, a grandson of the founder of the commonwealth, and occupied by various distinguished personages until its destruction by fire, a number of years before the present park system was created.
