MONTANA

"The Big Sky Country" mounts an exhibit full of the fire and spirit of the Western frontier. At the heart of the exhibit are seven railroad cars, parked on a rail siding and painted on the outside with 16-foot murals of Western scenes by Montana artist Lyman A. Rice. Three of the cars house a museum, another displays a collection of cattle brands, and the remainder contain shops. Also on the grounds are two corrals, two log forts and some Indians.

The rustic wooden structures of the Montana pavilion were a striking contrast to the many futuristic structures spread across the Fair. (CD24 Set 132 #3A)
Montana was a very long and thin pavilion due to the use of the train cars. (CD10 Set 50 #4)
