| Coming real soon! |
| Just acquired more home movies of Frankfort. One from the early 1950s of a downtown parade with a lot of footage of the Roxy Theater in the background. Another home movie of a downtown Frankfort parade from 1959 shot on 16mm film with brilliant colors. Also, another home movie of Riley Elementary taken in 1935 with various scenes shot inside and outside of Riley. Lots of good stuff you will see here on this site. |

| Ing-Rich Porcelitems monthly magazines |
I would like to thank Susie Brock for contributing a bunch of Ing-Rich Porcelitems magazines from the 1950s and 60s. These magazines were published monthly by the Ingram Richardson Company which operated for years here in Frankfort. These magazines contained stories about Ing-Rich employees and company news. These will take time to get scanned and put online but I do have two issues availble for your viewing. Click on the links below and view the magazines page by page.
Sept. 1958 issue of Ing-Rich Porcelitems Magazine
March 1964 issue of Ing-Rich Porcelitems Magazine
June 1945 issue of Ing-Rich Porcelitems Magazine
Be sure once you bring up these magazines to click on the page you want to view in detail to zoom in.
