  FROM THE COLUMBIAN EXPOSITION OF TOKEN

FROM THE COLUMBIAN EXPOSITION OF TOKEN RECUERDO DE LAS FIESTAS COLOMBIANA Product Description Columbian Exposition Fair This Token Commemorates the Parties or Festivals put on by the Columbians after America was discovered.  Embossed token with the date October Such a Fun, Unique Collector's Piece! The mile-long Midway at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago was the closest an amusement seeker came to a sure thing in .  The Columbian Exposition was the first major American fair since the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition of , and it marked the beginning of a golden era. It was followed in the next decade by world's fairs in Atlanta, Nashville, Omaha, Buffalo and St. Louis. As American social historian David Nasaw has written in "Going Out: The Rise and Fall of Public Amusements," the fairs were meant to do far more than merely amuse the public: "The world's fairs were paeans to progress, concrete demonstrations of how order and organization, high culture and art, science and technology, commerce and industry, all brought together under the wise administration of business and government, would lead inevitably to a brighter, more prosperous future." In many ways, they were the ultimate expression of their age.  The World's Columbian Exposition, celebrating the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's landing in America, was actually held in , a year later than had been planned. New York City, Washington, D.C., St.Louis, and Chicago had all vied for the honor of housing the exposition, and it was during this vigorous and often vocal competition that Charles A. Dana, editor of the New York Sun, dubbed Chicago "that windy city." Chicago's lobbyists finally won out and, on April , President Benjamin Harrison signed the act that designated Chicago as the site of the exposition. It took three frantic years of preparation and work to produce the exposition. Although dedication ceremonies were held on October , the fairgrounds were not opened to the public until May . The exposition closed on October . MG Pictures are of actual item you are bidding on or considering purchasing. All pictures are part of the description. Please examine them carefully.

Pre-Columbian Art and the Post-Columbian World: Ancient

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Braun, Barbara, PUBLISHER: ABRAMS, Until this trailblazing book, now reissued in paperback, much attention had been given to the connection between modern art and indigenous African forms, while pre-Columbian sources of modern art had been largely unexplored. Correcting this oversight, Barbara Braun offers an in-depth look at Paul Gauguin, Frank Lloyd Wright, Diego Rivera, Henry Moore, and Joaquin Torres Garcia and the pre-Columbian forms that provided inspiration for their art, dramatizing the often surprising comparisons in over 300 striking illustrations. Together with an overview of more recent artists who continue to be indebted to ancient American forms and ideas.

War of the Worlds

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Wells, H. G., PUBLISHER: Berkley Publishing Group, It is the mother of all alien invasion stories, and still, in its way, the most compellingly realistic. The biological truth Wells has given us would slow down an alien encounters on Star Trek or Farscape, where intrepid adventurers rarely worry about local languages, much less breathing the local air. The aliens have invaded because they have a fondness for human blood, sucked from living beings (how they discovered they had a taste for us is unclear, but it makes dramatic theater, anyway). If you haven't read Wells, you need to; Wells created a landmark -- he is a thoughtful social commentator, a pioneer of what makes SF intellectually appealing, and a damned fine storyteller, too.
