Two updates for this thread.

1) It looks like the water ski show as pulled out sometime before closing as I have pictures of them preparing for the Closing Day ceremonies and the water is gone. That area was filled with bleachers for a large band and other performers. So I would safely say it was gone by closing but I don't yet know when or why.

2) Here's the first pass at the cover. I've asked for a few fixes but I was happy with the cover image they chose.

3) Kevin has been sending me some great suggestions and corrections of the text draft as I work through it, which is greatly appreciated. If there are other Century 21 enthusiasts who would like to help please raise your hand and shoot me a message.

When I started this project I was worried about having enough pictures to fill the book. Now I'm agonizing over which ones to cut. This happens on every book so far, but it's a great excuse to spend time going through the pictures again. For additional research I watched "It Happened at the World's Fair" again last night. They had some really great footage of the Fair, so it was a fun task indeed.

Great cover shot Bill!

I can't wait to see this book on the shelves of the Space Needle gift shop in very near future!
