THE THEME CENTER OF THE
NEW YORK WORLD'S FAIR
An artist's sketch of the 200-foot Perisphere
within which visitors to the New York World's
Fair of 1939 will view from a revolving platform
suspended in mid-air, a dramatization of the
World of Tomorrow. Clusters of fountains will
screen the piers supporting the Sphere so that
the great ball will appear to be poised on jets
-a unique use of the trihedron as an architec-
tural form in such dimensions-will serve as a
Fair beacon and broadcasting tower.
The plans for the Perisphere and Trylon were
prepared by the architectural firm of Harrison
and Fouiloux.
