1939 NY Worlds Fair Souvenir

1939 NY World's Fair Souvenir

I was at an old house and found what I thought was a piece of scrap. After getting home and cleaning out my treasure purse... actually, it is a satchel... like Indiana Jones carries. I noticed that the scrap had writting on it, it said "social security" across the top. A little more cleaning, and a little research, and low and behold, a souvenir from the 1939 World's Fair. It has the guys name embossed on it. He chose to put his home town "Matthews, NC" instead of his SS number.

Smart Man ... Nice Keeper find... I found a George Washington Inauguration Anniversary Token from the same Worlds Fair here in N.Y. last year in a local park...
