Thank you. This was available on VHS years ago, but the print wasn't near this same quality. The actual movie starts at their home in Hempstead, Long Island.
The 1939 fair was the best by far. They say it was art-deco/streamline style at it's peak. After the fair it began it's decline. The "mall" with the Perisphere at the end is basically what's there today with the '64-'65 fair's Unisphere on it's same pilings. The Perisphere and Trylon were actually temporary structures that were taken down right after the fair.
