The World's Fair National Bank occupied a building on Plaza of St. Louis, 84 by 54 feet and two stories high.
Description
This institution was a joint enterprise of seventeen of the leading bank and trust companies of St. Louis, and transacted the World's Fair grounds business for all of them. It was capitalized at $200,000 (equivalent to $6,031,852 in 2021); but the total money and resources of the institution's backing was several hundred millions, making it probably the most powerful financial concern in America.
