2012 Chicago Auto show
Under the auspices of Motor Age magazine, the first official Chicago Auto Show was held March 23-30, 1901. The location was the Coliseum exposition hall that was situated between Wabash and Michigan Avenues and 15th and 16th Streets. Prices for exhibit space on the main floor, which measured 300 feet long by 170 feet wide, ranged from $1.00 to $1.50 per square foot. Opening night was "invite only" for the "top 20,000 families" in Chicago. General admission for the public was 50 cents per ticket, and spectators could walk among the displays on the first floor or find ample seating to watch the show from the second level gallery.
