Behind-the-Scenes Tour: For Sale in Connecticut

From Yankee peddlers hawking their wares, to inn and tavern owners attracting customers, Connecticut has a long history of self-promotion. Come see our tavern signs, want ads, bumper stickers and give-away toys, and see if you would have been able to resist marketing in the days before Madison Avenue.

Visit storage and collection areas not normally open to the public, and learn how the CMCH preserves the stories of Connecticut. Tours last approximately 1 hour and are appropriate for ages 12 and up. Space is limited, and pre-registration is required. Questions? Call (860) 236-5621×289 or email jennifer_steadman@chs.org.
