Surprising to see just how little the State Fairs have changed over the years .... save for the enormous rides!

An interesting note on the cavas banners in those days.A very few survive from the 30's thru the end of the 40's.All were hand painted in those days and some have sold in fair condition for 6000.00$.Some painted by very well known artists of the era.Some are absolutely truly a master work.An old one in good condition from a major circus or well known Carni could fetch 10K.....................so if you are lucky enough to have one don't leave it in the barn.

sorta of makes you feel like you are there !

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Maine Architecture, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

I think it might actually be the depot... From Wikipedia: The Montreal, Maine & Atlantic Railway (MMA) is a 745-mile (1,199 km) regional railway operating in the states of Maine, Vermont and in the Canadian provinces of Quebec and New Brunswick, providing a direct rail link between northern Maine, Saint John, New Brunswick and Montreal, Quebec. However, the MMA has recently announced plans to abandon its northern Maine lines, and an effort has begun to have the State of Maine purchase the lines and improve them, to ensure continued rail service.
