Pan-American Exposition
The
Pan American Exposition was a
World's Fair held in
Buffalo, New York from
May 1 through
November 2,
1901. It is most notable because
United States President
William McKinley was shot by an
anarchist,
Leon Czolgosz, on
September 6,
1901. The newly developed
X-ray machine was displayed at the fair, but no-one thought to use it on McKinley to search for the bullet, which might have saved his life.
