Pan American Expo. in Buffalo day 1-36
This is the Pan Am expos 110 aneversery from May 1st to November 2nd. This was the high point in Buffalo's history. Where Buffalo was the center of attention of the world for a few months. The location of this Pan Am is by Hoyt Lake and the Albright-Knox art gallery. For one thing to be clear the Albrigt gallery was not built for the fair but for local use, but it was ,however, used even though it was not finished till 1905. Since the Albright was big and elaborate the architects for the Pan Am slaked and made their art gallery dull and not fancy,because of this the Albright was put on the post cards.(below)
