What was Appleton like during the Progressive Era (1850 – 1920)? The turn of the century was a period of speculation and excitement. Americans felt the excitement of world fairs and new technologies entering their daily lives. This new exhibit at the History Museum hinges on Appleton’s evolution from a fledgling manufacturing town to a modern industrial center. Through a collection of 3,000 photographs, amateur photographer W.D. Schlafer captured this rapidly changing environment during the Progressive Era in the Fox Cities. Visitors will see how much Appleton and the Fox Cities evolved as new technologies and ideas changed the lives of area residents during this transformative period.

The morning sun sends mystical shafts through the fog drifting over the green fields to glint off of the polished plate armor of combatants taking to the field of honor. In sharp contrast, the sun also illuminates gentile ladies ringed around the field, some working cross-stitch, some spinning thread, some preparing a morning repast for after the battle. The peaceful morning sounds of birds calling and the warm breeze blowing through the trees that surround the field is shattered with the cry of, “Lay on!” The battle begins and armored bodies rush each other to try to get in the killing blow. The sound of rattan swords ringing off of armored bodies fills the air. A bard’s voice suddenly joins the din as his heart fills him with the need to recount other historic battles to help inspire his comrades on the field.
