Expo 67
1967 FILE PHOTO - ARCHIVES - This is the face of Expo '67; where nations large and small have gathered on an island in the St. Lawrence to boast of their achievements; display their differences and show their wares. In this photograph; as in the world outside Expo; the centres of attention are the United States and the Soviet Union. Behild the tree-shaped pavilion of the Canadian Pulp and Paper Association loom the soaring rectangular roof of the glass-walled Russian pavilion and the plastic-covered goedesic dome that symbolizes the U.S. at Expo. Have the international giants abandoned rivalry? Not at all. They're in a new kind of battle - and the spoils are the approval of 35;000;000 fairgoers 1967 PHOTO : Boris Spremo - Toronto Star Archives - AQP
