Expo 75 Small Metal Souvenir Dish International Ocean Exposition Okinawa Japan
(Scroll down to see all the photos - click on each photo to see a close-up view) This auction is for a small metal commemorative dish from Expo '75 - the International Ocean Exposition - Okinawa, Japan. The top of the dish measures 3" in diameter - the bottom pedestal measures 1-1/8" in diameter - the dish stands 1-1/8" high. The underside is marked "24K GP" which I believe stands for 24 karat gold plated. (Too bad it is not solid gold!) It weighs 2.9 ounces. The dish is in good condition. A NICE SOUVENIR ITEM FROM EXPO '75! Postage is $3.50. Check out my other auctions for more Expo '75 items and other World's Fair items. Combine auction wins to save on postage. If you win more than one item, wait for me to send you an adjusted invoice with the adjusted postage. Last year I purchased an enormous collection of World's Fair items from just about every World's Fair and Exposition from San Diego 1915 through Japan 2005. It seems like the man visited just about every fair and expo from 1964 through 2005 all over the world - Canada, Japan, Portugal, Spain, South Korea, Australia, the U.S. and other countries. I'm still going through the 40+ containers which contain souvenirs, photos, slides (He took lots of photographs and slides of these expositions), books, publications, etc. The man was also an editor for a book publisher in New York City and he received many press kits on some of these fairs. These press kits contained press releases and photos and weren't available to the general public. If you are looking for a particular world's fair or exposition, let me know and I'll list them. If you are interested in a specific companies or country's participation at World's Fairs from 1964 through 2008, let me know and I can make up an auction lot that covers that specific company's or country's participation over the range of several World's Fairs. (ie you collect items related to Chrysler or Sweden and would like items related to either one, so I'll put together a group of items from the 1964, 1967, 1968, 1970, 1975, 1982, etc Expos & World's Fairs on Chrysler (or Sweden, etc) and make one auction lot of it. This collection will take many months to go through! All descriptions copyright 2012 rockndeco.
