Democracity ... a planned community of the future.
Admission to the exhibit was 25¢, I am not certain if the 24-page brochure explaining how the community would be designed was included with the cost of admission or was sold separately. However, today the booklet is rather hard to find.
For those of you who are NOT collectors but are interested in what was contained in the booklet, I have re-created it and it is available as a PDF file in three different versions.
These downloads of the Democracy Booklet are FREE and are intended as information to help keep the 1939 New York World's Fair alive.
Single page - this file contains all the pages, one page at a time. (file size 10.58MB) download the file.
Side-by-Side - each page of the PDF is next to it's adjacent page as if you were reading it. (file size 10.57MB) download the file.
Tabloid layout - These pages are laid out so that you can print a replica of the booklet on 11" x 17" paper. The original booklet pages were 12" x 18", so this will print a bit smaller. (File size 10.71MB) download the file.
