SANDOR CHICAGO WORLD'S FAIR. 1934.
391/2x261/2 inches. Goes Litho Co.
Condition B+: vertical and horizontal folds; minor restoration in margins and corners.
In a burst of neon yellow, orange, green and blue, a sign post is marking off different aspects of the fair against a blue background: the Skyride Tower and the Hall of Science and buildings from the foreign villages, all over a green globe. The Chicago World's Fair marked the first time that neon lights were used extensively, and this poster reflects the novelty, energy and brightness of the many displays.
