1939 World’s Fair

Fair

Ford!

Rocket transportation of the future!

The superhighway of tomorrow!

Milk!

Milk?

This is the end of the 1939 World’s Fair section. I’ve really enjoyed doing this one. It isn’t the entire book, but a glimpse at the best pictures and articles. It was a fair devoted to our tomorrows, without realizing what stood in the way. Not all of these things came to pass, of course, but it is remarkable to think of what might have been, and how right our great-grandparents were.

Go here for the last four pages. Or be nostalgic about it, like me, and start over at the beginning.
