Title	Yugoslavian Pavilion
Identifier	spl_wl_exp_01106
Description	Yugoslavia exhibit, Century 21 Exposition (Seattle World's Fair). “Yugoslavia, the Seattle World Fair’s only Iron Curtain representative, began construction of its exhibit building yesterday. The ingeniously prefabricated building will be completed by opening day of the fair Saturday. The sponsor of the display is Yugoexport, a Yugoslav trade agency with headquarters in Belgrade. The building will be a rustic replica of a 17th Century mountain cabin using 100-year-old pine wood shipped from Yugoslavia. A variety of merchandise, from furniture to musical instruments, will be sold during the fair. Boskovic Designs, a representative of Yugoexport, is here from Belgrade to supervise assembly of the 40-by-28-foot building. Sam Viskovich, a Seattle youth whose parents were born in Yugoslavia, is serving as volunteer interpreter for the construction crew during his spring vacation from Lincoln High School.” (Seattle Times, April 17, 1962, p. 3.)
