Does anybody know where one can find programs for the exhibits that were
shown at the Worlds Fair in NY in 1939 and 1940?  Someone has been told by
neighbors that her house was part of an architectural exhibition at the
Fair and was later moved to Putnam Valley.  Have there been any books,
dissertations, or articles on the Fair that she might consult?  She would
like to document this if possible.

My only memory of the Fair was being separated from my parents in the
General Motors building.  A terrible experience for a very little girl!
