Children at the Ohio State Fair photographs   Save
Wonderful World of Ohio
Description: These two photographs of children playing with mirrors were taken at the 1969 Ohio State Fair in Columbus. The slides measure 2" x 2" (5.08 x 5.08 cm). The Ohio State Fair was an important opportunity for farmers to promote their crops and livestock and to learn about advances in agricultural machinery. The first state fair was held in Cincinnati in 1850. In the ten years that followed, Newark, Sandusky, Zanesville and Cleveland hosted the fair, before it settled permanently in Columbus.
