Last year, I was really desperate for other MN State fair items. I was researching how the fair looked when I first saw it in the late 1980s, which booths have changed or stayed the same. I took a trip over to the
Minnesota History Center (I may know someone who was born in the parking lot there.) And they have a quite a treasure trove of books on the MN State Fair. I have the book,
"Blue Ribbon," by Karal Ann Marling

and,
"Minnesota State Fair: An Illustrated History,"by Kathryn Strand Koutsky and Linda Koutsky

As well as,
"Seed Queen," by Colleen Sheehy

and last but yeah least, "
State Fair," by Susan Lambert Miller

Let me know if you need a hug or something to get you through until next year's MN State Fair.
