"Five New England states cooperated in the New England Combined Exhibit which consisted of a reproduction of a wharf and dockside warehouse and a replica of a seagoing schooner which brought the trade goods of the world to such a wharf in the great days of New England sail. Within this setting, each state - Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont - maintained a separate hall for displays of state history, industry and tourism" (World of Tomorrow p. 148).
