The third carillon


The third carillon at the 1964-1965 New York World's Fair was at the Coca-Cola Pavilion. This was a large one, as seen in the picture. I can remember hearing it play during the fair and can also remembering it seemed out of place. Bells ringing in an old Belgian Village was one thing, but somehow in the more modernistic setting of the rest of the fair they seemed out of place.

Another long day so another quick post, but we'll be back at the Coke pavilion tomorrow.
