Pamphlet: Visit Japan at the New York World's Fair

THE JAPAN PAVILION at the New York

World's Fair 1964-1965 combines three

spectacular buildings, sponsored by the

Japanese government and private enter-

prise. The pavilion area covers 87,000

square feet, and is one of the largest of

all international displays at the Fair.

The First Exhibit building has been created to point out the great strides Japan has made over the last 100 years. In this relatively brief span, Japan has moved from a feudalistic society to one of the leading industrialized nations in the world. Over the past three years Japan has doubled her industrial output and now ranks among the top four nations of the world in total industrial production. The exhibit will show visitors her achievements in advance technology in many fields, among these will be space exploration rockets, high speed cameras, electron microscopes, automated ships, ultra-modern machinery and transport concepts.
