Journey back to the awe and ambition of the 1939–1940 World's Fair on San Francisco’s Treasure Island with this striking 1940 linen postcard featuring the towering figure of Pacifica. Created as the serene guardian of the Golden Gate International Exposition, Pacifica watched over the Court of the Seven Seas with quiet strength and grace. Her stylized form, draped in flowing robes and crowned with an elegant headdress, symbolized peace in the Pacific, an ideal cherished deeply in those pre-war years.
