Ohio’s Centennial Spirit
Curious about how Ohio celebrated the nation's 100th and 200th birthdays? Learn more about Ohio's Centennial Spirit and how we have celebrated America's founding over the years.
This delightful cartoon and the accompanying ruminations on finding an arrowhead, appeared in an unknown, but probably Columbus, Ohio, newspaper sometime in the 1930s.

Goslin was a curator at the Ohio Historical Society who started out working as an archaeologist, but who went on to focus on Natural History.
I’ll be sharing other gems from Goslin’s scrapbook in the coming weeks.
