Description
This is a very nice 1833 – 1933
"Good Luck"
Souvenir Medal from the
"Century of Progress"
Exposition that was held in Chicago
from May 27, to November 12, 1933 and from
May 26, until October 31, in 1934
.
The theme of the fair was
"A Century of Human Progress"
from 1833 until 1933. And it had been an amazing Century. The advent of electricity had really made a huge and permanent difference in all phases of human endeavor. The fair's motto was
"Science Finds, Industry Applies, Man Conforms"
. The fair buildings were multi-colored, to create a
"Rainbow City"
in the then current
"Art Deco"
style.

The Medal:
A piece that someone cared enough for to set aside. It hasn’t been stored in the best conditions and has picked up a little dirt over the years. It still shows some gentle luster in places and it is fully original, never cleaned. This exposition produced numerous numismatic collectibles, but this one is not seen often. As grading is subjective, please see the pictures and judge for yourself.
