was built to house the Dominion Fair which was held annually in a Major Canadian City. 1913 was Brandon's year. There is reported that 200,000 people attended the Fair during its 10 days of operation. In the 20,s Straw Boaters were the chosen headgear and the Merry-Go-Round was placed at the head of the Provincial Exhibition. A sideshow were the English Siamese Twins, Daisy and Violet. Before Display Building Number two was built a building called the Crystal Palace was used, see Photo's
