Let's Go Back: Aladdin Homes

The Clarke Historical Library on the campus of Central Michigan University is home to thousands of artifacts - papers from Michigan's first settlers, historic photographs of the Soo locks, and even some rare and historically significant first edition books.

Today, we begin highlighting some of these amazing artifacts, in a new series called "Let's Go Back - Stories from the Clarke Historical Library. In our first installment, we look at the library's Aladdin Homes collection.
