Shop Our Collection of Regional History and Gifts
Get lost in a great book about our area, and shop for collectibles and gifts that show your pride in Elgin's unique history. Here are just a few:
All American Stories, Elgin Myths and Memories by Mike Powers
Mike Powers has stuffed this debut book with larger-than-life characters and filled each chapter with warmth and wisdom. Anyone at all interested in Elgin will be captivated by Powers' prose, which is a tribute to the city of his youth. He takes us through the 1960s and '70s with insight and intelligence. Originally $19.95, on sale now for $15.00.
The Historic Business District of Carpentersville
The town of Carpentersville was platted and surveyed on July 15, 1851, by Julius Angelo Carpenter. This man developed the extensive business district that we see to this day on Main Street. Although some buildings date as far back as 1871, they stand today in pristine condition! $49.95, now on sale for $39.95
Elgin and Fox Valley Collectibles
Be sure to stop by our Elgin Visitor Center booth, where we feature Elgin metal decor, hand-crafted wooden renderings and photos of many of Elgin's historic buildings and parks. Antiques and collectibles unique to the Fox Valley area and local authored books are also available here. Pick up a visitor brochure or local guide while you are here, and learn about the unique history of the Elgin area.
