Medicus Reel 1 - Part 1
Around the corner form a $24 island is a meadow that cost $155,000,000. Flags and banners are its symbols, plaster and cement its breast and backbone. It teems with showmanship but shows surprising beauty. It shouts Tomorrow while it echoes Yesterday. Its splendors are unending, its treasures many. Its a show of shows, where some with blue blood and millions with red blood, gasp and gape. It is called the New York World's Fair.
