The exhibits included many antiquarian remains illustrating the history of the Jews in England, together with a collection of objects of ecclesiastical art and miscellaneous Jewish antiquities. The idea of the exhibition originated by Isidore Spielmann, an engineer, who enlisted the co-operation of a large number of English antiques dealers and collectors. Frederic David Mocatta, a Jewish-English financier and philanthropist served as the president of the exhibition. Spielmann served as an honorary secretary on the exhibition committee and later - as president of the Jewish Historical Society of England, from 1902 to 1904.
