New York World's Fair Officially Approved Postcards
Set of four officially approved postcards from New York World's Fair 1939. The postcards show pictures of architecture from the fair: the Electrical Products Building,the Du Pont Building at the Exposition,the United States Steel Building,and the Trylon and Perisphere buildings. Great images reproduced in bright colours. The theme of the exposition was the future,and more than 44 million people attended over the two seasons. Very good condition,a very small stain on the United States Steel building postcard,and a very small stain on the reverse of the Trylon and Perisphere postcard. Backs of the cards are blank with space to write a message on the left and the address on the right below the postage stamp box with descriptions of the featured buildings and structures including information about the builders,architects and designers,and the Trylon and Perisphere logo above.

FAQs
More information about our posters and service.
Are your posters originals?
All antique and vintage posters listed on our website are guaranteed originals as detailed in their photographs and descriptions, and include a certificate of authenticity.
What is a lithograph?
Most of the posters found on our website are lithographs. This is a method of printing that involves drawing a reverse image of each colour onto a piece of stone. The poster sheet is then imprinted consecutively with a stone slab for each colour, creating a stunning and rich image.
With the exception of silk printing, I believe that other printing techniques do not deliver the same impact of colour as lithography.
Where do you deliver to?
We ship posters worldwide rolled in shock-resistant and hard wearing tubes. Unless specified otherwise, delivery is free within the UK and standard international delivery is £35 for orders placed via our website.
