Ohio State Exhibit - A Century of Progress International Exposition brochure (page 09 a)
Summary
Rail Transportation, one of a set of fifteen murals by William Mark Young, shown and described in a brochure published to accompany the Ohio State Exhibit at the 1933 A Century of Progress International Exhibition (aka "Chicago World's Fair"). The murals were subsequently relocated to the Ohio Statehouse.
The accompanying description reads: "The ox teams and prairie schooners lumbering over the hills of Ohio are indeed a long way back of the present railroad train and the most modern of railroad stations. The latter is typically illustrated by the new Cincinnati Terminal which was opened to the public about the same time as was "A Century of Progress" Exposition. "
