[Niagara Falls, World’s Fair, silent, 1939]

This vintage 1930s color film captures two iconic locations: Niagara Falls and the 1939 New York World’s Fair. The first half of the footage showcases the majestic beauty of Niagara Falls, with water cascading over the edge and mist rising as tourists stand along railings, admiring the natural wonder. The second half transitions to the grand spectacle of the World’s Fair, held in Flushing Meadows, New York, featuring pavilions, trams, and crowds exploring the “World of Tomorrow.” Visitors stroll past architectural marvels, international exhibits, and dazzling water fountain displays, culminating in a nighttime fireworks show. The film offers a nostalgic glimpse into a bygone era, highlighting both the awe-inspiring power of nature and the optimistic vision of progress and innovation.
