Diorama: 1964 New York World's Fair:
Prepared by the New York City Plumbers' Union:
Some 52 million people attended the 1964 New York World's Fair dedicated to "Man's Achievement on a Shrinking Globe in an Expanding Universe." The Fair offered displays demonstrating new technologies and consumer products including US Government Space Program innovations and artifacts, robots Walt Disney called "Audio-Animatronics," a model of the future World Trade Center's Twin Towers, the Skype-like Bell Picturephone, the latest in color television ingenuity, and the new Ford Mustang. Many large corporations like DuPont, General Electric, IBM, Kodak, RCA, US Steel, Westinghouse, and the Ford Motor Company presented their recent technologies in individual pavilions. |
