Purpose of The 1964 New York World Fair
The 1964 New York World Fair, back in the day, symbolized what many today would identify with as a grand consumer show. The fair covered a variety of products produced in America. The fair showcased technologies from various industries, from consumer electronics to transportation and living, in a way that would never be seen again.
The World Fair had manufacturers of chemicals, computers, pens, and cars present. All of which gave attendees at the fair an opportunity to glimpse inside the future.
Computers were present at the fair too, which included computer terminals with their keyboards, mainframe computers, teletype machines, telephone modems, CRT displays, and various other technologies. However, this was back then when computers were just beginning to enter back offices, away from the public eye, and decades before we had the internet.
