Description

See historic and vintage photographs of Columbus’ Lazarus Department Store including Christmas window displays and trains. A trip to the Capital City during the holiday season was a treat for many Ohio families, and many people still have fond memories of the anticipation and delight of the displays and shopping at Lazarus.

 

The Statehouse will also feature an exhibit of milk glass from the collections of the Ohio History Connection. Milk glass is an opaque white glass that is blown or pressed into various shapes. This exhibit features many animal figures. First appearing in Venice in the 16th century, milk glass continues to be made today and has become a popular collectible.
