Great pics, thanks for posting!

This series you posted is definitely from the 1964 World's Fair in NYC. Check out the Chrysler building in the background with the pentastar emblems for the roof segments! The giant Uniroyal tire ended up in Michigan after the show. Walt Disney was involved with the 1964 NY World's Fair, and in fact his dinosaurs were a huge hit. They ended up in Epcot Center as the popular Universe Of Energy ride.

Ford had an incredible display, including a skyway where real Ford cars were used in a ride that carted you around on a elevated platform. Millions of people rode the Ford ride during the World's Fair.
