In 1893, all roads led to Chicago! The World's Columbian Exposition (also known as the Chicago World's Fair) was a world's fair held in Chicago in 1893 to celebrate the 400th anniv ersary of Christopher Columbus's arrival in the New World in 1492. 130 years later, the effects of the World's Exposition can still be observed all over the city. We created this Printed Poster as an homage to the Golden Lady, and one of the only historical events deemed worthy of warranting adding a star to our municipal flag. This printed poster is 11"W x 17"H on 100# Cover Stock Paper. Designed and produced by Transit Tees in Chicago's Wicker Park neighborhood. Show more
