A LOOK AT THE CENTURY OF
PROGRESS
I hope to have a more detailed tour of the Century of
Progress available later, but wanted to get things started with this sample of
original photos.
| The Century of Progress had
a touch of Buck Rogers about it, with the cars of the Sky Ride traveling
high above the Fair grounds. This view was taken from the roof of the Sears
Roebuck pavilion looking towards the south. (CD1 Set 1 #1) |
|
|
| The towers of the Sky Ride
offered spectacular views of the Fair. This angle shows the Electrical Group
and the Horticultural Building. (CD1 Set 1 #14) |

|
| Another view from a Sky Ride
tower, with the Adler Planetarium on the far left. (CD1 Set 1 #16) |
