riteZ Keystone State Fair
\%\l and Industrial Exposition
\ _ / CAPITAL $1,500,000.00
ANNOUNCEMENT
Plans and Purposes
The Keystone State Fair and Industrial Exposition Company has been
organized to give to Pennsylvania what its people have long needed and de
manded, an appropriate State Fair, where the people of this and other Com
monwealths can foregather to see at a glance all that Pennsylvanians make,
mine and grow.
It will show a great community of interests—the products of the Pennsyl
vania home, of the Pennsylvania farm, of Pennsylvania waters, of her mines
and manufacturing industries. All these will be shown within the boundaries of
a great 410-acre park, upon which will be erected immense fireproof, concrete
and steel buildings for exhibition purposes, together with a great auditorium.
A two-and-a-half-mile automobile speedway will encircle a 250-acre plot, a
perfect plateau that lies adjacent to the park properties that will be used for
building purposes. Coupled with this will be a one-mile and also a half-mile
trotting and racing concourse, and a horse show pavilion located adjacent to a
concrete and iron grandstand, with a seating capacity of one hundred thousand.
Varied and interesting amusement features, forming a summer recreation
park will occupy a large area of the center of this automobile speedway track.
Adequate railroad and trolley car terminals will be provided to handle ex
peditiously an attendance of two hundred and fifty thousand people, that will
journey to and from Keystone Station.
OUR LOCA
The site, comprising 410 acres, lies along the main line of the Pennsylvania
railroad on the eastern boundary, and the beautiful Susquehanna River on the
western boundary, between Harrisburg and Middletown.
Along the entire one and one-half miles of property run the lines of the
Harrisburg Street Railway Company, with through cars from the grounds
to Harrisburg, Middletown, Highspire, Steelton, Carlisle, Hershey, Mechanics
burg, and dozens of smaller communities which make up the intensely settled
community of which the Keystone State Fair site is the center.
The Keystone Fair and Exposition, with its great two and a-half-mile auto
mobile speedway, will surpass any venture of a like nature that has ever been
attempted in the world's history. Every farmer, stock raiser, fruit grower,
dairyman, manufacturer, mine owner, and every business man in the great
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is interested in the success of this enterprise.
This is to Be Your Fair!
