Today on Show Me St. Louis, Patrick Murphy, author of Prelude to a Century: The 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair, sat down to discuss his new book with Mary Caltrider. This year marks the 120th anniversary of the 1904 World’s Fair, and a new exhibit is opening at the Missouri History Museum on Saturday, April 27th. This is a topic of interest that strongly resonates with St. Louisans to this day. Murphy discussed some of the incredible inventions and discoveries at the St. Louis World’s Fair in 1904. It truly was a cornerstone moment for our city.
