This collectible pinback is a must-have for any World's Fair enthusiast. It features the iconic Alweg monorail from the 1962 Century 21 Exposition held in Seattle, USA. The pinback is in excellent shape and is a great addition to any historical memorabilia collection.
The trains were built by ALWEG Rapid Transit Company in West Germany in 1961, and were shipped to New York City where they were placed on traditional rail cars and transported to Seattle. Blue Train arrived before Red Train, and was placed on the beam in February 1962. On March 3, 1962, Blue Train made its first test run.
