Originally, it was only supposed to run in 1933, but it was so successful that it was "held over" for another year. The theme of the fair was technological innovation, and its motto was "Science Finds, Industry Applies, Man Adapts", giving out a message that science and American life were wedded. This World's Fair is probably best remembered today for the fact that the famous fan dancer Sally Rand appeared there, and that the "Graf Zeppelin" came there from Germany. The first Major League Baseball All-Star game was held in conjunction with the fair. General Motors had a giant exhibition there, as did the other car companies. Important Added Info: Note that the five 8x10 photos offered here were taken by "Kaufmann & Fabry Co.", who were the "official photographers" of the World's Fair. They were taken of sexy models on the beach by the "General Motors Pier". Two of the photos have snipes on the back that indicate that the photos were issued by GM, and the girl on those two photos is identified as "Miss Dorothy Swanson of Chicago and New York". If anyone knows more about these photos, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: very good. The two photos with snipes on the back have discoloration in the center of the front, caused by the snipes. The other three are in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
