Diorama, Zim World's Fair Collection:
Prepared by the New York City Plumbers' Union about 1964
Larry Zimmerman (1931-1987) was an afficionado of World's fairs, who wrote extensively about them. He collected a wide variety of artifacts for fairs held from 1841 until his death.
The Zim Collection includes such items as souvenir drinking glasses, badges, bandannas, mechanical banks, bookmarks, bracelets, buttons, postcards, medals, and paperweights. The New York City Plumbers' Union diorama of the 1964 World's Fair is one of those artifacts. |
