4. THE FAIR OPENS, FEBRUARY 18, 1939
Although you could drive over, the best way was
by the Key System ferry for ten cents. Admis-
sion to the Fair was 50 cents. The main exhibit
halls were grouped around the 400 foot high
Tower of the Sun. The 1939 fair ended on Oct.
29th with the world at war. There was a 1940
season from May 25th to Sept. 29th. The
previous exposition in San Francisco, The
Panama-Pacific of 1915 was also held during
a world war the United States would enter.
