Sorry Bigbro, my New York World's fair card is an exterior long shot taken from across the garden. The large A-frame building is visible with the name of the place "Polynesian Restaurant" on the front. A couple of buses are parked in front, but you can make out lots of grass thach siding along the exterior walls. Behind the restaurant you can see the skyway attraction and a very large five story pagoda, most likely a chinese pavillion. The back of the card reads "The Court of the President of the United States of America showing the Polynesian Restaurant in the background. Palm trees are planted about and there is a lagoon where beautiful Polynesian girls pilot outrigger canoes and natives dive for oysters."

I don't have a scanner, so I can't post any pics. But I'll bring my cards with me to the Tropics in Palm Springs next month if anyone is interested in looking at them, or trading duplicates.
