The Northfield Historical Society is pleased to announce the donation of an 1898 reproduction of Lincoln Fey’s #2 car. The car was donated by James Hoffman of Minneapolis. It took Hoffman five years to build the car. Hoffman and his daughter drove the car in the DJJD parade this last year and decided that the car belonged in Northfield. The car will be on display at the Northfield Historical Society until mid January and then it will go on display at the Rice County Historical Society.
Come back to the NHS website, as we will have a post on the Fey Brothers up shortly.
NHS thanks Jim and his family for this wonderful donation!
