EDITORS COMMENTS
"Step right up and prepare to be transported to a land of wonder and enchantment! This photograph captures the entrance to the Enchanted Island at the Chicago World's Fair, also known as the Century of Progress Exposition, held in 1933. Located in Chicago, Illinois, USA, this remarkable event marked the 100th anniversary of the Great Exhibition of 1851 in London and showcased the latest technological and industrial advancements of the United States and other countries. The Enchanted Island was a popular attraction at the fair, offering visitors a delightful escape from the everyday world. The entrance is adorned with intricately carved figures pointing the way to the theatre, amusement park, and entertainment area. The sign above the entrance reads "Enchanted Island," beckoning visitors to explore the magical world beyond. The 1930s, a decade known as the Thirties, was a time of great innovation and creativity in America. The Chicago World's Fair was a testament to the country's ingenuity and its ability to bring people together to celebrate progress and discovery. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the impossible seemed possible and the world was full of wonder and excitement."
