Marquette Regional History Center presents:Here Comes the Wizard Oil Wagon: Senior Support Series (SSS)Wednesday, November 5, 1:30 p.m. During the last quarter of the nineteenth century, Marquette County residents eagerly awaited the arrival of various traveling medicine shows. The shows consisted of free musical performances and humorous skits, plus sales pitches for whatever medicine the self-proclaimed "doctor" was selling. This presentation by local history buff Bill Van Kosky will take us back to the golden age of quackery, when medical science was floundering and anyone could legally put anything in a bottle and say that it would cure all ills of man or beast. This daytime SSS program includes an antique medical equipment display by Chip Truscon, door prizes, and complimentary Dead River Coffee. All ages welcome. Free program.For more info visit marquettehistory.org or call 906.226.3571

Maps are a valuable tool for seeing history at work. Maps have been used as an aid to all types of transportation from steamboat routes to today’s single track bike trails. They are also used as a marketing tool, for reference, and entertainment. View maps of the Great Lakes and Marquette County. See how mapmakers have sometimes misled their viewers and how our landscape and surroundings have changed.
