verso (printedi n black): 32785 / CHICAGO'S SKYLINE AND LAKE / SHORE DRIVE /
From a struggling frontier town in 1830, / Chicago has developed into one of the most / rapidly growing industrial cities in the world. It is the fourth largest city with a population /of 3,376,438 (1930 census). Its artistic de-/velopment has kept pace with its growth and / it has planned a park and boulevard system that / is perhaps the most ambitious ever conceived / by any city.
