<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TT Antique, post: 9733888, member: 2653&quot;]Just out of curiosity, I found these two photos depicting wall relief works or plaques at the entrance of the electricity building in the 1933 chicago fair (right and left of the entrance). They were designed by Ulric Henry Ellerhusen (1879-1957)</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.bridgemanimages.com/en/american-photographer/the-electrical-building-at-the-century-of-progress-1933-b-w-photo/black-and-white-photograph/asset/744059" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.bridgemanimages.com/en/american-photographer/the-electrical-building-at-the-century-of-progress-1933-b-w-photo/black-and-white-photograph/asset/744059" rel="nofollow">https://www.bridgemanimages.com/en/american-photographer/the-electrical-building-at-the-century-of-progress-1933-b-w-photo/black-and-white-photograph/asset/744059</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.bridgemanimages.com/en/noartistknown/bas-relief-panel-electrical-building-at-the-century-of-progress/nomedium/asset/744062" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.bridgemanimages.com/en/noartistknown/bas-relief-panel-electrical-building-at-the-century-of-progress/nomedium/asset/744062" rel="nofollow">https://www.bridgemanimages.com/en/noartistknown/bas-relief-panel-electrical-building-at-the-century-of-progress/nomedium/asset/744062</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>And at the entrance&nbsp; of the Communication&nbsp; hall there is another giant plaque.It was designed by a different person(s).</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://explore.chicagocollections.org/image/uic/67/qr4nv4s/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://explore.chicagocollections.org/image/uic/67/qr4nv4s/" rel="nofollow">https://explore.chicagocollections.org/image/uic/67/qr4nv4s/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>But judging from the communication hall plaque,it is different&nbsp; from that&nbsp; of the smaller &quot;heroic&quot; plaque&nbsp; we have . In principle similar&nbsp; inquiry can be made for the 1939 NY as well to see the plaques at the entrance&nbsp; of the respective halls, though search results are hard to come by.&nbsp; The idea I wanted to check is whether&nbsp; the giant plaques&nbsp; at the entrances of the respective sector walls were similar to the miniature plaques we saw or not...</p><p><br /></p><p>TTA[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
