St. JOHNSBURY- Catamount Arts will be showing an exhibit now until the end of the summer about the Fairbanks scale. The exhibit took many months to coordinate and many people have said it feels like you're time traveling.

The exhibit displays pictures of what the Fairbanks looked like dating back to the 1800's, along the original brick wall.

Jennifer Paine, the exhibit coordinator believes that the history is not only interesting but important.

"You know, Gordon Fish had this collection in his basement for over fourty years and apparently, the Fairbanks company put out a lot of materials that they did not want to move to their new location that other people might have picked up and so we don't know who might still have artifacts out there from the Fairbanks Morse Company."

The exhibit will run to the end of the summer and is free to the public.
