 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Supporters contend that the Eleventh Edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica (1911) represents "the sum of human knowledge" at the beginning of the 20th century; indeed, it was advertised as such.
When T.S. Eliot wrote "Soul curled up on the window seat reading the Encyclopædia Britannica" he was certainly thinking of the eleventh edition.
The edition is still often regarded as the greatest edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica, with many articles being up to 10 times the length of those in other encyclopædias.

 OD Board - 1911 encyclopedia on-line
I've heard about the 1911 encyclopedia from a lot of people, but I still don't know what's so special about it (a friend of mine has the actual editions), other than the featured picture of a Pullman porter in the article "Negroes".
I have a 1950s edition and it is amazing the differences between that set and the modern ones.
Pierce used to cite the 1911 edition when discussing Portugal and other topics.

As such, it was considered to represent the sum of human knowledge at the beginning of the 20th Century."
"The LoveToKnow Free Online Encyclopedia is based on what many consider to be the best encyclopedia ever written: the eleventh edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica, first published in 1911.
At a time when many encyclopedias have capsulated and condensed important knowledge, the 11th edition is generally much more in-depth and thorough on it's topics.

 1911wikipedia - Meta
Current online 1911 editions are OCR scanned and thus of very poor quality.
Unlike the regular wikipedia, 1911 wikipedia would be edited only to conform with the actual printed form.
While anyone would be allowed to edit, once an article conformed to the printed edition and included any needed pictures there would be a partial lockdown of the article, although exceptions could be made for errors found later on, or if better scanned pictures are available.

Entry on the artist in the 1911 Edition Encyclopedia.
He was enrolled amongst the nobility of several states, decorated with various orders of knighthood, and associated in the highest professional honours.

Welcome to the world's first hypertext encyclopedia of toons — which will soon, I hope, come to be regarded as the Internet's most comprehensive source of information about the U.S. toon scene.
A toon is a cartoon or cartoon character — "cartoon" referring not just to the animated kind, but also to such "still cartoons" as comic books, newspaper strips, magazine cartoons, etc.
