| Photographer | Unknown |
| Date | 1962 |
| Notes | The Century 21 Exposition took place between April 21 and October 21, 1962 and is also known as the Seattle World's Fair.
"The French Government's extensive exhibit, covering 15, 000 square feet in the northwest corner of the Coliseum, is entitled 'The Toys of the Modern World.'... The psychological and social problems posed by the provocative exhibit include such things as the threatened loss of individual identity and sensitivity in a shrinking world of mass information and automation. Proposed solutions include reaffirmation of man's devotion to the arts and control of his environment to insure the fulfillment of his individual aspirations." (Century 21 Exposition. (1962). Official Guide Book, Seattle World's Fair 1962. Seattle: Acme Publications. p. 40)
