Caption: "Frank Bucks [sic] Monkey Land. Chicago Fair. Sept. 20, 1934." View of a rocky cliff populated by a species of monkey.

The Exposition, a world fair attended by thirty-nine million people, celebrated Chicago's one-hundred year anniversary of incorporation. Originally planned to only run from May to November in 1933, it was such a success that its organizers decided to keep it running for a second season from May through October the following year.
