I saw it at the NY Worlds fair in 1964 at the Vatican pavilion.  It was breathtaking.  Literally.

You must be older than me. About all I remember about that fair was the Traveler's Insurance expo on the evolution of man.

I remember a lot of things from the New York World's Fair.  I still have an irradiated mercury dime from the Atomic Energy expo.  I remember AT&T showing video phones and microwave and laser and fiberoptics.  There was a roller coaster with a loop to loop.  I had never seen that before.  Mostly I remember standing in line for hours and hours and hours...

I remember the New York Worlds Fair. My parents took our whole family, six kids at that time. I remember the video phone, it only took almost 60 years to become a normal thing. 😊
I remember a large wire frame globe. There was a ride  on the outside of a tire and the Jetsons type car on a track.

I also remember seeing modern gas pumps for the first time at the fair.

We had six kids and my father was pretty cheap so I can't even understand why we were at that fair. We never did have relatives up there that I know of. We had the 45 RPM record from that expo on man and it got a lot of play from me when we got back home.
