Large 1933 Chicago Worlds Fair Century Art Print Framed
Here is a vintage reproduction of a poster intended to help raise money for the 1933 - 1934 Chicago Century of Progress World's Fair. As far as we know, this poster design was never used and has not been released to the public. The poster is titled "Chicago World's Fair Centennial Celebration - 1933." At the bottom it says - "Be an original signer." We believe signers were the people who donated money to help build the Fair itself. The poster measures approximately 21 × 29½. It is newly framed in a black and blond wood tone wood frame measuring 23 1/2 x 32 1/2 inches. The colors are vivid and striking. The design is extremely appealing, depicting a crowd of fair-goers under an arch leading to an Oz-like city in the clouds - perhaps a reference to the first Chicago World's Fair in 1893 known as the "White City." There is no signature by an artist, only the initial "CM" in the lower right corner signed in the plate. The condition of this reproduction poster is mint. This is a great find for any Century of Progress, World's Fair or Chicago collector For International shipping please request a SHIPPING QUOTE Shipping and handling for this item is $58.00 plus additional insurance cost.
