Greyhound

Many American fairs have featured Greyhound buses as a way to tour the grounds, and the Century of Progress may have launched that tradition. Here a bus waits for visitors, with the Travel & Transport building to the left. (CD #2 Set 3 #1)


Sweden

While most of the exhibits were decidedly American in nature, there were several international exhibitors as well. It wouldn't have been much of a world's fair otherwise! Here's a view of the Sweden pavilion. (CD #2 Set 3 #2)


Common Brick House

The Home and Industrial Area included several full-size houses, all built with different materials and construction techniques. This is the Common Brick House. After the fair ended it was moved with several others to Beverly Shores, Porter County, Indiana. (CD #2 Set 3 #6)
