RCA

The RCA pavilion, looking from the outside like a cluster of white and copper drums, has several exhibit sections and a TV studio that serves as the Fair's official Color Television Communications Center. The Center is linked via closed circuit to over 250 color TV sets located around the fairgrounds; a completely equipped color mobile unit supplies coverage of news and special events. Televised over the network are official announcements and ceremonies, film clips filled with facts about the Fair and a "living guidebook" of six-to- eight-minute visits to points of interest on the grounds. In addition, lost children are brought to the studio and put on television so parents can find them by watching the TV receivers elsewhere on the grounds.

The RCA Pavilion viewed from the Gotham Plaza entrance, with a Greyhound Glide-a-ride tram passing by a stand selling souvenir guide books. (CD24 Set129 #28)
Inside the pavilion, guests could  see themselves on color television, which was still relatively new back in 1964. They could also watch a variety of shows being taped, such as this one showcasing animals from the Bronx Zoo.(Pana-Vue 641Q4)
