Text transcribed from caption: P-30929 BIBLE TRANSLATION DESCRIBED IN FAIR PAVILION NEW YORK -- One of the smallest, but most unusual, buildings at the New York World’s Fair is the “Pavilion of 2,000 Tribes.” Built by the Wycliffe Bible Translators to represent a native hut, the pavilion’s name represents the number of tribes as yet without a written language. In addition to an exhibit area describing translation technique and the work of the Wycliffe organization, fairgoers -- for 50-cent admission fee -- can view large murals in a display room which tell the story of Christian linguistic work among headhunters in the Peruvian jungles.
