Description
-
In the background is a cloudy blue sky with the words: "World's Fair Chicago 1934" suspended over a group of diverse-looking buildings. In the middle is a tall white tower, surrounded by architecture typical of Chicago mixed with what appears to be fair tents. In front of this is a body of water in which people ride gondolas and speedboats. On both sides of the foreground are traditional village homes from various countries, including the Netherlands and Italy. Four women in colorful dresses dance down a pathway through the center of these houses. At the bottom of the poster is the slogan, "Tour the World at the Fair, See Fifteen Foreign Villages." As the World's Fair is a multicultural event, this brightly-colored poster meant to convey the inclusive spirit of the event.
