1939
New York World's Fair

What is this?
World's Fair Board Game

This 1939 New York World's Fair Board Game was found at a garage sale.

To bad the Perisphere is missing. If you look closely at the bottom photo, you can see that the workmanship is rather crude.

A Reply:

K.C. from NYC wrote on Sept 6: I was in the Museum of the City of New York today, which has an extensive toy collection, and saw a board game called "Build Your Own New York World's Fair" (1939).

This may be what was found at the garage sale. If you have further questions, you might contact the museum curator through the website at www.mcny.org.
