Fourth of July in Eagle

Description

A program detailing the weekend's festivities in celebration of the July 4th in Eagle, Colorado. The 4th of July was known for its baseball tournaments in early Eagle County. People would come from all over the surrounding area to watch the weekend's games between neighboring towns, most important of which was Eagle vs. Red Cliff. (At the time, Red Cliff was the county seat and Eagle was catching up.) This particular program shows a full day's schedule of events and prizes, like horse racing, wheelbarrow races, and children's foot races followed by fireworks and a grand ball. The program has gold embossed letters and designs and the information insert is printed on blue paper with black writing. The program is tied together with a gold string at the center.
