  We still hold "Court Day" in my hometown of Mt. Sterling, KY every October. It began as an event similar to this photo. In our small county "court day" or the day that they held local court was also a time for folks from the country to gather around the Court House square to trade and sell hunting dogs, food, guns, and other supplies. Today it is a large flea market and fair held once a year, but up until the 1980s, it still held this flavor of a countrified flea market and trade/swap.
