New York World's Fair 1939

With the slogan "Dawn of a New Day", the 1939 New York World's Fair was the first fair that focussed on looking to the future and showing guests "the world of tomorrow". One of the most expensive fairs ever at the time, the fair was greatly affected by the start of World War II just a few months before it opened.

This stunning poster was created ahead of the fair in 1939 to promote it and features a brilliant design by Joseph Binder depicting the Trylon and Perisphere built for the fair. Printed by Grinnell Litho Ltd. in New York, this piece is in fantastic condition.
