There are a myriad of objects on display at "Centuries of Progress: American World's Fairs," ranging from photographs to models to archival materials to ephemera--including the "World of Tomorrow" World's Fair patch worn by the hometown New York Giants, Brooklyn Dodgers, and New York Yankees. Interestingly, the trio of Gotham clubs displayed the Trylon-Perisphere-Helicline logo during the 1938 season--even though that world's fair was held in 1939-40--apparently to make way the following year for the baseball centennial patch that all major league teams would wear, commemorating the 100th anniversary of when Abner Doubleday supposedly invented our national pastime.
