Bailey House. Streetcar Arch Installed 1934, reinstalled 2014 Then: It’s hard to believe, but horses and mules were once used as a mode of transportation to the State Fair. By the 1890s, a different type of horsepower took over: trains and streetcars. The railway allowed companies such as Royal American Shows to unload a 90-car train filled with midway attractions at the fair. Streetcars brought visitors into the heart of the fairgrounds. In 1934, those tracks were shortened, introducing a new gate entrance and steel arch inscribed with “State Fair” to welcome guests fresh off the streetcar rails. Streetcar transportation remained popular until the ’50s when its usage declined with a new mode of public transportation: the bus.

  • This Document Is Made Available Electronically by the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library As Part of an Ongoing Digital Archiving Project
    p This document is made available electronically by the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library as part of an ongoing digital archiving project. http://www.leg.state.mn.us/lrl/lrl.asp E "Remember this fair." I said this daily during the 2009 Great Minnesota Get-Together to our hard-working staff and the dedicated members of our board of managers. It was clear during the first days of the fair that something very amazing was going on, and that's saying a lot for an institution that's provided more than 150 years of"amazing." The '09 State Fair's program of agriculture, education, entertainment and commerce was current, relevant and. as vibrant as ever. The historic State Fairgrounds never looked better and, as a bonus, the 12-day exposition was blessed with great weather. Minnesotans responded in a big way. Ifyou ask 100 people why they attend the State Fair, you will get many different answers. Sometimes, though, the best answers come from far away. A travel writer from Japan wrote that he came to the Minnesota State Fair "because I wanted to see and touch real life and culture in America." That's the essence of the fair experience: It's real. It's life and it's culture and unlike most of today's digitized virtual reality, you can touch it. For Minnesotans, our problems are left outside the gates as we reconnect with each other in a colossal celebration of all that is good about our state. The State Fair inspires and renews us unlike anything else.

  • Early Minnesota Agricultural Societies and Fairs
    EARLY MINNESOTA AGRICULTURAL SOCIETIES AND FAIRS^ ONE OF THE INSTITUTIONS deeply ingrained in the pattern of American life is the agricultural fair. Anyone who saw the motion picture " State Fair," starring the late Will Rogers, will appreciate better than through descriptive words how many families anticipate and enjoy the fair. Some people feel that such exhibitions are outmoded, that they are carry-overs from an earlier age, yet the tenacity with which they have hung on to the present day attests their importance even In modern society.
