Enterprise Album – 120th Ohio Hills Folk Festival

This year marked the 120th Ohio Hills Folk Festival also known to locals as “The Quaker City Homecoming”. A parade held during the festival dates back almost to the festival’s beginning.

Businesses have promoted their wares and services over the years. This ca. 1907-10 entry to the parade highlighted the blacksmith services of T.H. English. That is likely English at the anvil. Note the leather work aprons on English and the young man at the back of the float that included a pony!

This post card image was taken and published by Quaker City photographer Earl Max.
