Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Night magic: The flamboyant fireworks and bright lights of the midway are the most colorful parts of the Canadian National Exhibition - so Star photographer Dick Darrell used a double exposure to capture them both in the same image. Rain dampened the Ex's hope for an over-all attendance record.
