Horse
and buggy racing was a popular attraction at the fair. The 1910 real photograph
postcard shows the crowds. The picture also shows a bandstand in front of
the grandstand.
In
the illustration right (taken from a 1926 fair brochure) we can see spectators
lining the track and filling the grandstand for harness racing. Tickets
in 1926 ranged from 50¢ in the bleachers to $1.00 for grandstand box
seats.
