>>5079998>Signed June 15, 1892>A-are you telling me it's not the work of some ancient mongol civilization??????Lmao Tartariafags are a digrace. Thank god they didn't flood this excellent thread. Good job OP
>>5080154What are you babbling about?
>>5080620How new are you?
>>5077755
>>5080774So it's nonsense. Check.I have no idea what a stock certificate has to do with Tartaria, and neither do you. Here's your (You), summerfag.
>>5081119You're retarded anon. The stock certificate proves that it was just a Columbian fair from 1893, while tartariafaggots think it was some magical lost civilization thing. You sound retarded like them, but in a different way tho
>>5081128>tartariafaggotsYou're the one who brought up Tartaria.Do you see any Tartarians in the room now? Take a look at the subject of this thread. Tell me how an image of the cert wasn't appropriate.WTF is wrong with you?
>>5081169>Thank god they didn't flood this excellent thread. Good job OPCan you fucking read? I said that for once a thread about the world fair wasn't flooded (pun intended) by tartariafaggots. And now you're sperging about nothing. Kys
>>5081384go back to pol, retardYou are not le funny
>>5081384Kek... excellent! You are a master baiter.
>>5079998Am I ever getting paid?
OP here, I think you guys have gotten a little off track. Post images of this great fair
>>5081454>gotten a little off trackI take that as a no. So go fuck yourself spiked out mrna soup blood double jabbed boosted vaxxtard.
>>5081460what? I am probably not the poster you think I am. I have only posted images so farthanks for the bump though
>>5081454>a little off track>not posting the intramural railway as a punNgmi
>>5081864>IntramuralI’ve only seen that word in the context of sports. What did it mean in this case?
>>5082884I suppose it means literally "within the boundaries" of the fair. Intra=within, mural=the walls, the borders
>>5083174Thanks

>>5085403so beautiful. thanks for the really hi res pics
>>5087489>>5087491Was that a geyser-like fountain? Like the one in Geneva's lake?
not as big as the one in Geneva, but yes, it was a fountain
>>5087868Cool. I thought those holes where cannon-like pipes to shot the water, but they were actually just circular tubes with holes to make the effect we see in your pic. Funny how the foxing on that old picture looks like if droplets of water from the fountain hit the camera
>we totally built it all in a year bro
>>5088597Hi tartariafaggot, we were waiting for you to shit up the thread... >>5079998>>5080154
>>5088608>mention how an entire city cannot be built in a year>random schizofag accuses you of bringing up TartariaNeck yourself, retard. Anyone this butthurt about it is probably a Jew trying to hide the truth, so perhaps I will look into Tartaria
>>5081169Yep. He was dying to insert his own Tartaria gatekeeping nonsense. They can't help themselves.
>>5077759Kino
>>5088614>>mention how an entire city cannot be built in a yearA plaster fake one? Oh ok, so you're just a regular retarded anon, not a tartariafaggot. Got it>>5088634Are you serious? I was just saying that for onve this thread wasn't flooded by tartariafaggots, since they always flock anytime someone mentions this world fair. Then a retard sperged out for nonreason accusing me of being a tartariafaggot myself (I bet you're probably the same illiterate retard btw)
>>5088033chinese style boat on the water?anyone know about this?
>>5092158>chinese style boatThat looks like a typical venetian lagoon boat called "bragozzo". I can almost see the lions of St. Mark on the sails. There were also the more recognizable and famous gondolas, so I think Venice could've been the theme of the boat show
>>5092158>>5092188Just checked. There was indeed a reference to Venice and its lagoon. Also, there were a caravel columbian fair, afterall) and a viking ship. Cool stuff
>>5092188>>5092190That's interesting, thanks! They definitely seem to want to be "worldly" and elegant at that time

Where did you find all these hq pics?
>>5085219where is that statue now ? was it made out of plaster too ?
>>5099814>was it made out of plaster tooSeems likely, yes. It was basically a gigantic stage set. I wonder if some smaller piece was looted by the workers and still rots completely forgotten in some storage box in Chicago tho. I womder the same with older film sets. Like, I bet some piece of Griffith's Babylon is still circulating in California's thrift stores lol

People are in such disbelief that white people could accomplish this that they invented the "Tartarian Empire" conspiracy because they can't accept that white people peaked in the 19th century. So they question, how did we go from 'that' to 'this' ?Well, white people invited the whole world into their nations, and thus destroyed themselves. Humanity now descends into a new dark age. It's no wonder people are starting to realize that the Austrian painter was right all along.
>>5100436Based. Also, I bet that the tartaria shit is actually a psyop to detach people from reality (aka the FACT that we were living in paradise just 100 years ago compared to to-day's hell)
>>5100467calling the 19th century, with its standard of living and housing, a paradise xD
>>5100528Uh? Unironically YES, Shlomo. I bet you thought you were pulling the best own of your life here, but except for scum like your grand-grandparents living in ghetto slums, life was pretty chill back then.

If you are interested in the 1893 World's Fair, you should read or audiobook "Devil in the White City" by Erik Larson. It explains how Burnham got the expo off the ground and ties in with the H.H. Holmes murders. It's one of the best historical books I have ever read/listened to.
>>5110614Absolute FUCKING KINO BOOK RECOMMENDATION from this anon right here.I hope DiCaprio never gets that film adaption off the ground. He's been trying for almost as long at it took him to win that first Oscar.

Oy vey, this is very anti-semitic!Where are the glass dildos and diversity?!These uppity goyim need to be knocked down a peg or two!
>>5110614Indeed, fantastic book, it's wild how many threads of history the Fair ties into, and the Holmes side of the story is harrowing
