"Native arts and crafts, plus the products of an industrial revolution, are on display in the spacious Government of India Pavilion on the International Mall. Readily visible through the ceiling-high windows or through the wide entries of the building are swatches of bright and beautiful Indian textiles, hung in zig-zag rows through the hall... To the left of the entrance are exhibits of Indian handicrafts, textiles, carpets, floor coverings and consumer and industrial goods. Behind the information booth, the story of old India and new India is told in a photographic representation." (Century 21 Exposition. (1962). Official Guide Book, Seattle World's Fair 1962. Seattle: Acme Publications. p. 82)
