Description
This fascinating guidebook provides a comprehensive overview of the Ford Motor Company building at the 1939/1940 World’s Fair, held in Queens, New York. Color photographs and text showcase the various attractions and exhibits therein, including the first car built by Henry Ford, a mobile mural, and playhouse.
The centerfold image presents a detailed pictorial map of fairgrounds during its second year of operation. Accompanying indices identify over 100 buildings and amusements.
Because of the recent outbreak of World War II, several updates were necessary from the 1939 season, such as the withdrawal of the U.S.S.R. shortly after its invasion of Finland.
