Description: Has a couple blemishes. See Pics for condition. 1895 Rand McNally Engraved Tinted Map of Brooklyn, NYC on Reverse Side 11x14" FL5It was summer, 1893. The Chicago World's Fair was crowded, clamorous, exciting.But a thirty-year-old mechanic named Ford forgot everything else as he studied a small gasoline engine mounted on a fire hosecart. He had been working a long time to develop just such a power-plant. Here was proof that his plans were sound! He hurried home to his little shop in Detroit, and by I896 produced a horseless carriage that would really run.OuT of that carly Fair came a Ford conviction, as well as a Ford car. The conviction that expositions are educa-tion. The conviction that if you show men's most advanced ideas to the minds of other men, progress is inevitable and everybody benefits.That's why the Ford Motor Company has been a big exhibitor at every important fair since its founding.
