Scam Carnival

August 21, 1937, Oshkosh Daily Northwestern
Let this be a cautionary tale to you, dear readers, to hold tightly to your wallet or purse when dealing with nefarious individuals associated with carnivals.  And lest you think this wasn't such a big loss, $660 in the year 1937 had the same buying power as $11,141.98 in July 2017, according to the Consumer Price Index Inflation Calculator I found online.  Yikes!
