Exposition Universelle et Internationale, 1905 Liège, Belgium

The Exposition Universelle et Internationale de Liège in 1905 commemorated the 75th anniversary of Belgium's independence. It was open from April 27, 1905 to November 6, 1905, and had approximately 7,000,000 visitors.

The incubator exhibit at the exposition has been attributed to M. Ehrlich, who used Lion incubators and appears to have had some type of business or licensing relationship with Dr. Alexandre Lion. Not much is known about Ehrlich, although he also managed incubator exhibits at Expositions in Budapest in 1906 and Scotland in 1908. The only picture I've been able to find of the Liege incubator pavilion is the postcard below.
