Where were you in '62?

Just in time for the 50th anniversary of the World's Fair in Seattle, the Seattle Public Library has put the Century 21 Exposition Digital Collection online for all to see.

The collection includes books, brochures, and reports. The main feature is 1200 black-and-white photographs taken before, during and after the fair by Werner Lenggenhager. Special collections manager Jodee Fenton says it's "an exciting new resource for students, researchers, and anyone interested in the Seattle World's Fair".
