You can trace "World's Fairs" all the way back to the 1933 Chicago

Century Of Progress, which was the first to issue matchcovers. From

San Francisco to New York and around the world, World's Fair covers

have been issued, often very colorful, often dated. Not one of the

easier categories, but very rewarding, especially if the collector has

actually been to some of the fairs. There are currently over 1,500 of

them.
