The fair cost 15 million dollars to build. The cost was divided equally by the City of St Louis, public subscription, and the United States Congress. Admission to the fair was 50 cents, and there were about 20 million attendees, so the fair generated about 10 million dollars in admission fees alone. The St. Louis World's Fair was the only exhibition of its kind to result in a net profit until the 1960's.
