Three postcards from the 1939 World’s Fair in New York. Each postcard depicts a different area of the fair grounds. The Corona North Gate, No. 2 Food Building (north) shows a Mural Painting and the New York State Exhibit Building and Fountain Lake Amphitheater. All three postcards are in amazing condition and show a piece of New York’s history well worth remembering.
