The 1964-1965 New York World's Fair was the largest international
exhibition ever built in the United States. More than one hundred
fifty pavilions and exhibits spread over six hundred forty-six
acres helped the fair live up to its reputation as "the
Billion-Dollar Fair." With the cold war in full swing, the fair
offered visitors a refreshingly positive view of the future,
mirroring the official theme: Peace through Understanding. Guests
could travel back in time through a display of full-sized
dinosaurs, or look into a future where underwater hotels and flying
cars were commonplace. They could enjoy Walt Disney's popular
shows, or study actual spacecraft flown in orbit. More than
fifty-one million guests visited the fair before it closed forever
in 1965. The 1964-1965 New York World's Fair captures the history
of this event through vintage photographs, published here for the
first time.
