By Sally Coplen Hogan From 1938 to 1963 Soap Box Derby races were held on the street named Indiana going toward Center Lake in Warsaw, Indiana. The derby was originally inspired by neighborhood boys racing homemade cars made from all sorts of materials. Thousands of people watched over the years and it was the highlight of "Pioneer Days". Compiled here are the articles themselves from those days with black and white photos. It is 90 pages. (Shipping and Handling and Tax are included in the price.) Show more
