This is a catalogue of Indian forest products prepared for the Paris Exhibition of 1878. It provides a detailed listing of various specimens of Indian forest produce, likely encompassing timber, oils, resins, dyes, fibers, and other materials derived from India’s forests. Such catalogues were important for showcasing the economic and industrial potential of Indiaâs natural resources to an international audience. The catalogue would have served as a means to promote trade, foster scientific exchange, and highlight the diverse range of forest products available from India. The meticulous categorization and description of each specimen offers valuable insights into the historical utilization and economic significance of Indian forests. It serves as a valuable reference for researchers studying economic botany, forestry, and the history of natural resource management in India.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
