For your favorite Chicagoan
$18.99
This bundle contains two sets of Chicago reference cards perfect for a visit or for a trivia hungry resident. In the Great Building of Chicago, you'll find a beautifully detailed photograph of a fascinating building; the location, architect's name, building dates, and structural design are noted on the back. In the What Happened Here deck you'll find information of real historical significance, of course - about Padre Jacques Marquette and Louis Jolliet, for instance, probably the first Europeans to visit the Chicago area; about the mighty stockyards that inspired The Jungle; about the origin of Montgomery Ward's nation-changing mail order catalog; and about Enrico Fermi's world-changing experiment in atomic fission. Comes with complimentary gift wrapping.
