Bluffton artifacts offered at the Boy Scout Indian Village's trading post
Old bricks from Bluffton's Main Street will be available as souvenir items during Bluffton's sesquicentennial celebration at the Boy Scout Indian Village's Trading Post.
The old Main Street was removed for the new Streetscape in 2009. Many of the bricks are embossed with "Convict Made 1927 Ohio State Brick Plant."
The bricks were laid on the street alongside the Western Ohio Railway electric interurban streetcar line, which ran on Main Street from 1906 to 1932.
The bricks can be acquired at The Buckeye on Saturday and Sunday, June 25-26 and again on July 1-2 by donation with proceeds given towards the Bluffton Boy Scouts' fund for new tents.
