Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) 12-page brochure from the 1939 World’s Fair in New York
Was folded in half at one time.
The 1939 New York World's Fair Pavilion of the Soviet Section brochure is considered
rare and collectible ephemera with significant historical value. These items offer a unique glimpse into the political and cultural competition of the pre-WWII era, when nations used the Fair to present idealized versions of themselves.
I was lucky enough to come across a collection of many unique and unusual items from the 1939 World’s Fair, so see my other listings for more of these unique items.
As a child, I loved going with my mama and grandparents to yard sales, estate sales, and thrift stores as we shared the love of sifting for treasures. That tradition has been continued into my adulthood and I am honored to share my unique finds with you.
Most items in my shop are vintage and are not brand new and come from estate sales. The items may show minor age-related wear and/or minor flaws consistent with the date of manufacture (please be sure to check photos carefully as they are part of the description). I do my best to describe any imperfections. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask!
