Gift Ideas for Chicago History Buffs

Here are some gift ideas we've collected. They're all things we know we'd like to be given.

Please note that we do not sell any of these items ourselves. In some cases we do make "affiliate" commissions if we refer a paying customer. However, these commissions do not add to the cost to you and we promise not to let the possibility of a commission take precedence over the honest opinions we give you in our descriptions.

Mounted Print of American Impressionist Childe Hassam's painting of the Chicago World's Fair

AllPosters.com offers fine art prints like this one (and hundreds of other Chicago posters and prints) mounted on wood for about $84 plus $14 shipping. You can also have it framed traditionally, or just buy the print itself for much cheaper. The mounted option is neat -- it comes permanently bonded to a wood backing (with a beveled black edge) that's braced on the back so that it appears to "float" on the wall.
