Default Old Fairgrounds Finds!!

Where I grew up at in Fairview,PA(Ohioville TWP.),
Beaver County. I decided to give the old fairgrounds a try. I was changing my oil in my truck, while it was draining, I happen'in to walk across the road to the fairgrounds.I was only over there a half hour or so before dark. My finds were:

>4-Wheats(all from early 40's-all were 6" deep)
>1-Quarter
>1-Tag which read:Drop in mailbox/Postage Guaranteed/Please Return To-(it was blank).
I will try tomorrow when I change oil in the wife's car! Maybe I'll dig up some silver!

Mr.Silver

Default Fair grounds

I can recall that fair from a long time ago used to get lots of people, also know about where the large food booth was.
