2 maps on 1 sheet, both sides,56x44, folded to 9.5x22. In the front : Map of New York World’s Fair, 1939, showing railways, subway lines, the joint IRT and BMT Queens service, elevated lines, roads, railroads, city blocks, streets names, parks, rivers and points of interest. On verso: General plan of New York World's Fair, shows the exposition grounds, with index. Includes photographs, text, advertisements and compass rose oriented with north to the upper left. The 1939-40 New York World's Fair had a visual style that made it particularly appealing to photographers. The theme of the Fair was "The World of Tomorrow", and that essence was certainly captured. It offered new hopes to those who had come through the Depression, but was overshadowed in part by the war in Europe that would soon engulf the United States. This section of the site salutes this amazing event. New York officials and businessmen led by Grover Whalen hoped that the fair would spur economic development in a city still recovering from the Great Depression.
