News copy on back reads: Artist sketch of the seventy-foot entrance façade of the great building, extending over an acre of ground, which will house exhibits relating to means of communication at the 1939 Exposition. The structure also will contain a restaurant seating 500 and the communications “focal exhibit.” Standing sentinel before it will be two 150-foot pylons slotted with shafts of light.
