Retro New York World Fair Metal Sign 18 x 12 Inches
The 1939 World's Fair was held in New York City drew 44 millions visitors to Flushing Meadows to see a diverse array of exhibits that included paintings by Jan Vermeer and "the car of tomorrow." The Retro New York World Fair Metal Sign pays tribute to the special event and bears the image of an advertising poster that graced the walls of travel agents offering packages to visit the fair. The sign shows an image of some of the notable attractions from the pavilion, including the Trylon, Perisphere and Helicline sculptures. Manhattan can be seen in the background, and the entire image is rendered in splendid detail.
Crafted from 24 gauge US steel and produced in the USA, the Retro New York World Fair Metal Sign is 18 inches by 12 inches in size and weighs 2 pounds. The image will not flake off or peel, as it is baked in place instead of painted. The sign is drilled and riveted, and the corners have been hand-vintaged to make the sign resemble an antique.
