14 x 22. This collection consists of four community event advertisements produced as window cards on heavy white cardstock. The posters represent regional fairs, carnivals, and circuses in Northeast Ohio and Western Pennsylvania, likely dating from the mid-to-late 20th century. Included is a poster for the La Brae Country Fair in the Leavittsburg area, featuring graphics of a clown and a Ferris wheel, printed by the Triangle Poster Co. of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. A poster for the Great American Circus at the Howland Drive-In Theatre in Niles, Ohio, displays illustrations of two elephants signed by artist Ray Dirgo and was printed by The Enquirer Printing Co. of Cincinnati, Ohio. A third poster advertises a carnival in Windham, Ohio, sponsored by the Volunteer Fire Department with classic rescue-themed graphics, also from the Triangle Poster Co. The final poster promotes the Hartford Apple Festival on Route 7 and 305 with a scene of children on a Ferris wheel. Each poster utilizes a high-contrast palette of red, yellow, and blue ink.
