July 2, 2006


Chicagology is a pictorial walkthrough of Chicago history with a focus on the period prior to 1900.
Arch
Above is a photo that was supplied by Donald Asher. Performing a new scan at a much higher resoulution, Don was able to identify the words “AVTVMN FESTIVAL” across the arch. Coincidentally, on October 4-11, 1899, there was a Chicago Autumn Festival.

Cheers!
