This page lists and/or displays all 113* known to me 1939 New York World’s Fair Picture Postcards published by
Miller Art Co. of Brooklyn, NY. Some websites state that this company started in 1922 and went out of business in 1941, but I can find nothing on the Web to verify these dates. Except as noted by "{A}" (my personal collection), or (BF) from Beth Farcht, all other displayed items were found on the Web.
Scans Wanted, Miller Art numbers: 137, 138, 140, 145, 146, 149, 151, 152, 153, 155, 156, 158, 159, 160, 161, 162, 163, 165, 167, 168, 169, 170, 171, 174, 175, 177, 180, 181, 186, 187, 188, 189, 190, 191, 192, 193, 194, 195, 197, 198, 199.
