Alida and Aurora at the New York Worlds Fair. They are standing in front of an enormous Dala horse. Aurora’s caption says this is the World’s Fair in 1939. I think they were there in 1940 because the billboard in the back shows the 1940 Republican Presidential candidate Wendell Willkie and his running mate, Senator Charles L. McNary of Oregon. Wilkie wasn’t nominated until June 1940.
