Does anyone have a "check list" of material from any of the worlds fair? Id specifically be interested in the 1982 Fair that was in Knoxville, since that is nearby.

I would start with the ANA archives you may be able to find some info on the specific stuff you are looking for

TokenCatalog has a number of tokens cataloged with numbers:

John Raymond has 2 on his So-Called Dollars website. Search for "knoxville" on the following page:

I did a quick Google search for "1982 knoxville fair token" and a number of different tokens came up. Seems like a potentially rich collecting area.
