Recuperation journey: Fall foliage find


I'm still waiting for more trees in the Valley to show off their fall finery! 

'Turnback Tuesday' features tie from Derby's 300th anniversary celebration

Turnback Tuesday has another item from the celebration of Derby’s 300th anniversary in 1975 that lasted 10 days.

Many men who attended or worked the event wore this tie. This particular tie was worn by George Berman, a local merchant in Derby. George worked at H. Berman & Sons Inc. at 284 Main St. He retired as President of the company in 1975.

This tie was a recent donation from the Berman family.


Thanks goes to the Derby Public Library staff for sharing interesting local history each week.
