Chicago's 1933-34 World's Fair: A Century of Progress In Vintage Postcards (Postcard History)

Shows 1933 - 1934 Worlds Fair Layout & many buildings.

Put on at the height of the depression the world"s Fair in Chicago. This fair is not as famous as the 39 fair in New York. Many interesting pictures of the area and the prices charged for many attractions. Even in this hard time in America the fair was a place to go and forget your troubles for a day or two for millions of people. By the way the fair made a profit after all was said and done. Sadly little or nothing is left from the Fair itself.

Very nice. This will not disappoint. Picture quality is typical of this style of book.
