Description

Seattle Washington World's Fair Space Needle and Alweg Monorail Postcard 27608 This postcard shows the Alweg Monorail gliding past the Space Needle at the 1962 Seattle World's Fair, also known as the Century 21 Exposition. Against a clear blue sky, the iconic monorail—America’s first of its kind—travels on an elevated track with the 600-foot Space Needle rising prominently in the background. The reverse highlights these two symbols of modernity and innovation, emphasizing the futuristic themes of the fair and Seattle’s transformation into a showcase of mid-century progress and transportation design.
