The 1939 World's Fair, held in Flushing Meadow's Park, Queens, was the brainchild of New York City businessmen who envisioned the international exposition as a remedy to the city's Depression-era economy. One of the largest expositions ever assembled, it attracted more than 44 million visitors. Thirty-six countries participated in the Fair and exhibitions displayed modernist technology, art, design, and architectural and technological innovations, such as the Trylon and Perisphere monuments or General Motor's Futurama pavilion. A variety of new goods were introduced at the exposition, including colored film, dishwashers, and nylon stockings. This coaster is an example of one of the numerous souvenirs available to visitors.
