When the gates of the 1964-1965 New York World's Fair swung open on
April 24, 1964, the first of more than 51 million lucky visitors
entered, ready to witness the cutting edge of worldwide technology
and progress. Faced with a disappointing lack of foreign
participants due to political contention, the fair instead
showcased the best of American industry and science. While
multimillion-dollar pavilions predicted colonies on the moon and
hotels under the ocean, other forecasts, such as the promises of
computer technology, have surpassed even the most optimistic
predictions of the fair. The 1964-1965 New York World's Fair:
Creation and Legacy uses rare, previously unpublished photographs
to examine the creation of the fair and the legacies left behind
for future generations.
