[Leica] 1964 World's fair pics

[rclark01 at comcast.net (Robert Clark)]

You should see pictures from athletic events from that era. No team gear in 
the stands...men are wearing coats/ties and the ladies with dresses and 
corsages. I have a media guide from the 1968 UNC Tarheel football team with 
several photos of people in the stands. They're all dressed up!
