a closer look at the 1934 Chicago World's Fair souvenier. When Joe bought it, the glass thermometer was still on the side in the RH view, but it was missing when we unpacked it at home :( The detail on this piece is amazing, the Hall of Science at the bottom, the front and back of the woman's head, the Federal Building and Travels and Transport Buildings on the top...A real cool piece of cuuh!!
