St. Louis: The 1904 World's Fair (Images of America: Missouri)
Joe Sonderman is a lifelong St. Louisan who has written several books on St. Louis history, including Route 66 in St. Louis. Sonderman has worked as an on-air personality and traffic reporter for over 20 years. He is an avid collector of Route 66 and St. Louis memorabilia and maintains an online archive of Route 66 images. Mike Truax is the president of the 1904 World’s Fair Society in St. Louis. His interest in the fair developed soon after he moved to the St. Louis area; a small souvenir ruby fl ash toothpick holder was passed down to him from his great-great-aunt who had attended the exposition.
