Comment

The 1964-1965 New York International Fair was a World's Fair. It took place in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park in the Flushing district, and the Unisphere, the main attraction, is today the unofficial symbol of the borough of Queens. The theme of the event is "Peace through Understanding". (Source : www.wikipedia.org)
