Official Catalogue of the Polish Pavilion at the World's Fair in New York 1939. Inside second page reads as follows: This catalogue has been designed by "ARKADY" and Henryk Mund. Cover and inside jacket by Antoni Wajwo'd. Plates by R. Borkehagen, Drukarnia Polska Ltd., and B. Wierzbicki & Co. Printing of color plates by The State Printing Works, and B. Wierzbicki & Co. Printed by Drukarnia Polska Ltd., and bound by Introligatornia Artystyczna. Warsaw 1939. This book must have been passed out to attendees at the New York Worlds fair of 1939. The art work in this book is fantastic. The cover is bleached from sunlight, the binding is excellent, and the pages are also excellent with just a little yellowing from age. No torn or missing pages. I have visited Poland many times since 1992 and this book is a real gem for a look at Poland before WWII. Example is the picture of the Project of a Square in Warsaw (under construction) by Prof. Bohdan Pniewski.
