Description: c1910 LONDON CANADA Manufacturers' Building Western Fair vintage Postcard A23 unused unposted vintage antique VTG ANT UNP people crowd Late in the year of 1867 The Western Fair Association was founded through the amalgamation of the East Middlesex Agricultural Society and the London District Horticultural and Agricultural Society.The first official meeting of the new Association was in 1868 and the very first Western Fair, which was predominantly livestock shows, was held on September 29 & 30, on the lands surrounding the Crystal Palace Barracks. The location was just north of what is today known as Victoria Park in downtown London, Ontario. In 1923 the Manufacturers Building was constructed as an additional exhibition hall during the fair, and throughout the year. You can see it in this 1925 fair photo. Sadly in 1963, the Manufacturers Building burned to the ground during the annual Poultry Conference and Exhibition in early June. With the annual Western Fair just around the corner the Progress Building was constructed in 11 weeks, on the same foundation and was in use for the fair in September that same year.
