‎Program. Text in German and English. Chronicle in German : "Es war am 22. Februar 1886, als sieben brave Schwaben den Geburtstag des Vaters ihres Adoptiv Vaterlandes ... in gebührender Weise feierten und anlässlich des auf das alte Vaterland, das liebe Schwabenland und seine Schwaben ausgebrachten Toastes der Wunsch ausgesprochen wurde, ... warum sollte unsere Stadt [Trenton] nicht auch einen Schwabenverein besitzen und alljährlich ein Volksfest, ähnlich dem berühmten Cannstatter feiern?" The first Cannstatter-Volksfest took place on the 13th September 1886. It consisted of a grand parade, costumed riders, decorated wagons, dedication of the Fruit Column, mostly Suabian "Volksspiele" for children and adults, a brilliant illumination of the park, dancing in the afternoons and in the evenings. The brochure shows pictures of the founders, "dem Württembergischen Königspaar", of the mayor, den Dorfmusikanten, dem Fest-Comite, dem Frauen-Verein(!) mit Vereinsbanner und der ersten Fruchtsäule (fruit column). Numerous advertisements of the sponsors (mostly of German origin). Minor wear, last page and back wrapper with a tear, some creasing throughout but in all a good copy of this ephemera. ‎
