The image showcases the Goodrich Sidney Arena, where Jimmie Lynch and his daring stunt drivers thrilled visitors with their death-defying acts. Seated comfortably in the covered grandstand, fairgoers were treated to an exhilarating display of automotive prowess. Beyond the arena, the Goodrich Building, depicted in the photograph, was a testament to the versatility and innovation of rubber. Dubbed "Rubber Wonderland," this impressive structure housed the manufacturing, testing, and demonstration of various rubber products. The building was a significant attraction in the Fair, showcasing the essential role rubber played in transportation and everyday life during the 1930s. Situated across the avenue from the General Motors and Railroad exhibits and the Administration Building, the Goodrich Safety Arena and Building were popular destinations for fairgoers. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating look at the excitement and innovation that defined the 1939 New York World's Fair.
