Middletown's "Downtown Abbey Exhibit"

Many of us have heard of the Masterpiece Theater hit show “Downton Abbey” and if you’re like me you can’t wait until the next season begins. For those of you in the Delaware area you might not be aware of an exhibit that the Middletown Historical Society has on the second floor. Thanks to the hit show it sparked some interest as to what life was like in Middletown during the same time frame. A visit to the second floor “Downtown Abbey” exhibit you can see some of the popular clothing styles and activities that took place from 1912 to 1924.
