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.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Instead of painting the site green to help celebrate St. Patrick's Day I thought I would use a shot of the Ireland pavilion at the 1964-1965 New York World's Fair. This was taken on April 21, 1965, for those of you keeping score. I enjoyed this view of the WNEW News station wagon making its way through the fair. Imagine what a great job it would have been being a reporter assigned to the Fair? Even on a slow day there was probably a lot going on - and the press pass probably got you into some great spots!
