And now for my last collectable! My own hometown of Rothsay, Minnesota. Rothsay is a small town, about 15 miles northwest of Fergus Falls, Minnesota. It is close to the beautiful "Lakes Region" and the beautiful Otter Tail Lake of Otter Tail County, Minnesota. It also lies on the border of the Red River Valley, so if you go west of Rothsay, you are entering the prairies of western Minnesota and only about 10 miles from North Dakota. If you travel east our of Rothsay, so enter the rolling hills of the border of the valley and into lake country.
My interest in Rothsay advertising items started when my father and brother starting dealing in antiques and collectibles - or junk as I used to call it!. Today they travel to auction sales and flea markets, buying and selling many types of interesting items.
Although I don't have too many pictures of my Rothsay items, I'll share a few of them with you!
