NYCTA 3803, a GM TDH-5303. Note the GM Pavilion at the World's Fair ad on the side of the bus. That was my favorite attraction next to the GE Carousel of Progress at the Fair.

At a quick glance, that 'profile' depiction of the Futurama building bears a resemblance of Boeings future B-747 'jumbo jet', itself five years in the future...
