"To visit the Queens Museum is to see the wonders of the World's Fair. Not one, but two World's Fairs were held on this very spot in 1939 and 1964. So it's no surprise that the museum owns some 10,000 objects related to those iconic expositions. And you can peruse some of the highlights at a little-known gallery here. It's the World's Fair Visible Storage, where you can see trinkets and treasures brought out of storage for you to enjoy and maybe even reminisce. The legendary - and controversial - developer Robert Moses was the man who turned an ash dump in this area into the site of both World's Fairs. We see Moses' IBM Selectric typewriter, the picture of modernity at the time. Also on view, a white telephone from his desk. On April 21, 1963, Moses received a call from President Kennedy on this very phone, to signal the one-year countdown to the fair's opening. Sadly, Kennedy was assassinated seven months later. Rather than Pavilions of Nations, in the spirit of American com-merce, many of the pavilions were created by private companies. The 1939 World's Fair's Futurama exhibit at the General Motors Pavilion was all the rage, with its predictions of massive highways in the future. We see an actual floor from the display, along with little cars and human figures. That same year, Con Edison had a City of Light Pavilion, with models of the Coney Island Wonder Wheel and a New York City subway car, also on display. Dotted throughout the cases are fair-themed souvenirs: vintage plates, jew-elry, and figurines. But the biggest World's Fair trinket is just outside the museum. It's the impressive, gargantuan, stainless-steel globe called the Uni-sphere. Built by a division of US Steel to symbolize the beginning of the Space Age, it was the centerpiece of the 1964 World's Fair. There's a great view of the Unisphere from the museum's upper-floor windows."
