Japan. Ho-o-den or “Phoenix Palace”. Designed by Masamichi Kuru.
Aztec Temple. Sacrifical alter not included…I think.
The Midway. The balloon pictured was later destroyed in a tornado storm while the Fair was still open.
Cafe in the Turkish Village.
Replica Viking ship.
Replicas of Columbus’ ships. Hopefully not to scale…
The FIRST Ferris Wheel. What most people today think of as the most boring ride was at the time an unthinkable marvel.
The Electricity Building. Edison and Tesla were both present. A collective defecation was probably experienced by most visiting this building as this was likely the first time ever witnessing electricity. Also, the nerds in our time are probably overcome with the thought of an Edison and Tesla battle.
The good kind of Water Gate.
The Court of Honor. Reportedly the most popular aspect of the exposition.
Those are people. Still think Disney World is bad?
Can’t deny Franklin’s sultry brow. That’ll be 50 cents admission.

Histastrophe! 
Funny you have the Fair as well. My friend, Judy over at

has photos from her late uncle Ced who visited the fair and she only just posted them a few weeks ago.
Looks like that is the other Chicago World’s Fair, the Century of Progress, which ran in 1933.
I love your comments for these pictures. Absolutely hilarious!! Keep up the good work 😉
