Linen-era color postcard showing the Federal Building at the Chicago World's Fair of 1933-1934 ("A Century of Progress"). Three dramatic Art Deco fluted towers -- each 150 feet high -- rise from a stepped base around a central dome, rendered in silver and gold against a vivid orange and blue sky. American flags flank the building; tour boats are visible on the lagoon in the foreground. The bold modernist composition exemplifies the fair's futurist aesthetic.
