The students of the Greenfield Village and Associated Schools of the Edison Institute began publishing the Herald in 1934.

SetFord at the Fair Exhibition
- 86 Artifacts
Chicago's 1933-34 Century of Progress Exposition used the theme of progress to encourage optimism during the Depression. The 11-acre Ford Motor Company exhibit became the most talked-about exhibit of 1934, featuring a central Rotunda designed to simulate graduated clusters of gears. After the fair, this building became an attraction at Ford headquarters in Dearborn, Michigan, until it burned down in 1962.
