The Naval, Shipping and Fisheries Exhibition was a world's fair held in Earl's Court London in 1905. It was intended to mark the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar, where a British fleet led by Admiral Nelson (who died in the battle) defeated a joint Franco-Spanish fleet during the Napoleonic Wars, to illustrate the marine power of Great Britain, and to provide demonstration of the British navy, mercantile marine, sea and river fishing, yachting, and more.
The president of the exhibition was the lord mayor of London at the time, Sir John Pound, 1st Baronet, and the vice president was Admiral Edmund Fremantle.
The exhibition opened on and closed on Trafalgar Day, .
Trafalgar related items included an item labelled as the quilt from Nelson's bed on board ship, a Bust of Lord Nelson and Trafalgar & the Death of Nelson, a "scenic interpretation" of the battle and death of Nelson.
But in addition to Trafalgar commemoration, there were naval, shipping and fishery related exhibits.
And, as in following Earl's Court exhibitions in the 1900s, there were amusement rides including a Hiram Maxim Captive flying machine and a Shoot-the-Chutes.
