Seattle World’s Fair — Seattle, Washington 1962

Since its grand opening on April 21, 1962, the "Space Needle" landmark continues to symbolize the innovative and forward-thinking spirit of Seattle. Located at Seattle Center, the tower stands at 605’ tall and is one of the most photographed structures in the world. The Fair, also called the “Century 21 Exposition,” featured the Needle and the Alweg Monorail, which is shown on the stamp.
