I've long been fascinated by World's Fairs. I've been lucky enough to have attended several myself and have been collecting photos from them for years. I've even written books on some of them, as listed on my site www.worldsfairphotos.com.

Post Offices - Part 11
Yet another post office shot. We're still at Expo 85, and this shot is just off to the left of yesterday's. This part of the operation was all business, with nothing there to show it was part of a world's fair. That's not really all that surprising, though, as it served as a working post office to the exhibitors at the fair. What is interesting is that one of the counter options was for "Electronic Mail". I'm not sure when e-mail started becoming popular but this has to be one of the first places I remember seeing it available at a counter.
