Jensen’s Peace Reigns

We’ve all been enjoying Josh Salwitz’s Seattle Center construction photos and now it’s time for a Max R. Jensen look at the final product. Jensen extensively documented the Seattle World’s Fair, being one of the few official photographers of the event. Who knows who was writing the captions, though. Enjoy and have a great weekend.

Strange to see “peace” heralded at the opening of the Seattle World’s Fair. That was back before they even invented peace, a half-decade before the Summer O’ Love.
I was a third-grader … and couldn’t go through the US Science Pavilion! I was grumply stuck in the kid lounge with some tables of stuff that didn’t make a big impression. Maybe there was a cloud chamber, though.
