Summary

Description
English: Highway Transportation, one of a set of fifteen murals by William Mark Young, shown and described in a brochure published to accompany the Ohio State Exhibit at the 1933 A Century of Progress International Exhibition (aka "Chicago World's Fair"). The murals were subsequently relocated to the Ohio Statehouse.

The accompanying description reads: "In the forefront of this painting are the rough dirt roads, the stage coach and the people of early days.

In the upper part of the mural is indicated the vast mileage of paved roads on which thousands of automobiles, buses and trucks now travel each day.

The old tavern shown is taken from an actual Ohio Inn built in 1803 and still welcoming the traveler."
