All's Fair At The Fair

For some reason, I've been seeing a lot about the 1930's World's Fairs in Chicago (1934) and New York (1939) recently.  Thus, it seemed appropriate to post this encore from 2010.  A rural couple visit the 1939 World's Fair.  From Fleischer Studios and the Internet Archive, here is All's Fair At The Fair.
