Douglas County Fair Books Index
The Douglas County Fair began in 1892, and has been a centerpiece of the Douglas County community ever since. The Douglas County Fair Books Index provides a list of names and advertisers who appeared in the Douglas County Fair's programs and advertising during the period from 1892-1998.
There are a few years which are not included in the index, either because there was no county fair that year (as was the case during the period from 1894- 1918 and again throughout the 1930's and 1940's) or because the fair books are not available in the Douglas County History Research Center.
If you would like more information, copies, or to view the fair books, call (303) 688-7730 or email sboyd@dclibraries.org.
