Description

Seattle Washington World's Fair Century 21 Expo Space Needle Postcard 27628 This postcard features an aerial view of the Seattle World’s Fair, officially known as the Century 21 Exposition, held in Seattle, Washington from April 21 to October 21, 1962. The image captures a sweeping panorama of the fairgrounds, showcasing the futuristic architecture and layout of the exposition. The iconic Space Needle rises prominently in the right portion of the image, symbolizing the fair’s focus on space exploration and future technologies. Nearby structures include the Washington State Pavilion and the Coliseum (now Climate Pledge Arena), as well as the graceful arches of the U.S. Science Pavilion. Below, the grounds bustle with activity, dotted with pavilions, exhibition halls, and crowds of visitors. The back of the postcard identifies the scene in three languages—English, French, and Spanish—and credits the color photo to Mike Roberts. This postcard highlights the modernist vision of the early 1960s and the optimism of the Space Age, all set in the heart of Seattle.
