New York World's Fair, Heinz Dome
Post
Heinz Dome, 1939. Unfortunately long gone, the Heinz Building at the New York World's Fair was an extremely popular exhibition at the Fair. During the 1939 season, the 100-tall domed building was decorated with a relief mural by Domenico Mortellito, depicting scenes of harvest in the eastern and western hemispheres. The interior presentation included an animated stage show that dramatized "the story of strained baby food." A figure, the "Aristocrat Tomato Man," sang and nodded his tomato head. The 'Goddess of Perfection,' a 16-foot statue (who held a sphere in her hands, though it was more of a disco ball then tomato) moved from inside the dome to its roof for the 1940 season, making the building even more visible.
