The seller has never seen another, not even on exhibit at the Fair Museum in Flushing Meadows. Though the lucite shows some surface wear it is optically clear , free of chips and smooth edges and lacks any haze or craze.
The medallion itself measures 1 1/2” and is superbly executed. A strong strike. The obverse shows the two towers( one 150!feet tall with a cafe, and the 2nd 226 feet observatory accessed by the skyline capsule elevator. At the base is an exhibit area and the entire image is superimposed in an outline of New York STATE, also seen in front is the TENT OF TOMORROW!!!
It was close to ruin but obtained a $54,000,000 grant to restore it. It is a direct walk from the Unisphere and omnipresent from the Grand Central parkway. Seen by millions. A true iconic symbol.
This brass? medallion embedded in lucite is also a survivor and worthy of display by any proud New Yorker.
It is well centered and with antique highlights looks as good as it
