'A Century of Progress International Exposition' was the name of a World's Fair held in Chicago from 1933 to 1934, celebrating the city's centennial. The fair's theme was technological innovation. The fair's motto was "Science Finds, Industry Applies, Man Conforms"; its architectural symbol was the Sky Ride, on which one could ride from one side of the fair to the other. A real blast from the past, to see how much things have changed, and how much is still the same. Dinosaurs, then as now, were very popular.. Very Good .
