Crowds On Exhibit Village Streets At The Century Of Progress

Crowds push through busy exhibit Village Streets at the Century of Progress International Exposition (1934). The Century of Progress was the World's Fair held in Chicago to celebrate the city's centennial with a focus on technological innovation and a theme of 'Science Finds, Industry Applies, Man Adapts.' The image originally appeared in 'Official Pictures of the 1934 World's Fair' (published by A Century of Progress and printed by Neely Printing Company).
