Come fly with me





Two fantastic promotional brochures for General Motors' "Futurama II" exhibit at the 1964-65 New York World's Fair. This was the most popular exhibit, "a ride into tomorrow", imagining life in the year 2024 . Includes a map of New York City and fab space age illustrations. Two great pieces of mid-century ephemera, available from PaperHistory, here.
