Description: Reverse reads "Tyler Davidson Fountain, one of Cinci's most famous landmarks". This large old fountain is perhaps the best known landmark of Cincinnati. It is situated in the center of the esplanade of Fountain Square, at East Fifth and Vine Streets, in the heart of the downtown business district of the city. The Tyler Davidson Fountain was cast in the Royal Foundry of Bavaria, of bronze from condemned Danish cannon. It stands forty-three feet high, and the bronze work alone weighs twenty-four tons. The sculpturing represents the Genius of Water giving her benediction to other figures symbolical of the varied uses of water. The fountain, which cost $200, 000, was presented to the City of Cincinnati in 1871 by Henry Probasco, a prominent local hardware merchant, in memory of his deceased business partner, Tyler Davidson.

Description: A photograph of the Buckeye Land Company Office in Youngstown, Ohio, ca. 1910-1919. The Buckeye Land Company, a subsidiary of Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company, provided housing for Youngstown Sheet and Tube employees. Organized by James A. Campbell, Youngstown Sheet and Tube appropriated $250,000 for the project in May 1916. Eventually the company would complete four housing developments: Blackburn Plat, Overlook Plat, Highview Plat, and Loveland Farms. These neighborhoods not only provided the steelworkers and their families affordable and modern housing, but also provided them with a sense of community. View on Ohio Memory.

Description: This photograph shows a man duck hunting. It was most likely taken around the Sandusky area. During the late 1800s, the Lake Erie marshes were known as some of the best waterfowl hunting areas in the United States. As early as 1890 much of the wetland area was being operated for private shooting. By the end of 1951 the entire 30,000 acres of remaining marshland along Lake Erie, from Toledo to Sandusky, was under private club ownership. Today, the region still supports some of the most intensively developed and managed waterfowling clubs in the Midwest. The Magee Marsh Wildlife Area, purchased by the Ohio Division of Wildlife in August 1951, lies in some of Ohio’s finest remaining wetlands. The marsh complex has historically been inhabited by large numbers of waterfowl, waterbirds, shorebirds, and songbirds. View on Ohio Memory.

Description: The Republic Steel Corporation Collection (MSS 192) consists of 13,000 black and white photographic negatives, 2,000 color photographic negatives, and many 35 mm slides which document Republic Steel Corporation’s main production facilities and its subsidiaries, 1941-1975. This collection also includes images of social events such as company picnics, award banquets, and dances. Founded in 1899, Republic Iron and Steel Company was a steel production company based in Youngstown, Ohio, and the result of a consolidation of 34 steel mills across the United States including the Mahoning Valley’s Brown Bonnell Iron Company, Andrews Brothers and Company, and Mahoning Iron Company. From 1927-1937, Republic Iron and Steel Company expanded its reach by acquiring a number of other companies such as Trumbull Steel Company in Warren, Ohio, and Central Alloy Steel Corporation in Canton, Ohio. With its expansion, Republic Iron and Steel Company became the third largest steel producer in the United States behind United States Steel Corporation and Bethlehem Steel Company, and changed its name to Republic Steel Corporation to reflect its new status. After the outbreak of World War II in 1941, the Corporation’s production increased by 33%. This increased production continued into the 1950s and 1960s as the company continued to be one of the leading developers of steel production technology. Due to a myriad of factors including decreased demand for steel from automobile manufacturers and imported foreign steel, steel sales declined and in 1984 the Republic Steel Corporation was purchased by LTV Corporation, which led to the closure of the Youngstown plant. LTV filed for bankruptcy in December 2000. View on Ohio Memory.
