    ipdb.notes
    We can find no confirmed manufacturer date for this game, but its theme is a tribute to the 1939 San Francisco World's Fair. Also known as the Golden Gate International Exposition, the Fair celebrated the opening of the two major bridges in San Francisco, both completed in the 1930's: the Golden Gate Bridge and the Oakland Bay Bridge. The backglass shows a portion of the Oakland Bay Bridge in the right foreground. In the center is the Fair itself, located on Treasure Island, a man-made island completed in 1939. The Fair was open February-October 1939 and May-September 1940. In April 1941, Treasure Island became a Naval Station in anticipation of American involvement in World War II. Based on the above information, we presume this game was made between 1939 and 1941.
