LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- The Frazier History Museum just opened a new exhibit focused on the history of newspaper, radio and television media in Louisville.
"Flashback: Louisville Media Through the Years" features the evolution of media in the city, from newspapers and radio to TV and the internet. The exhibit also features coverage of major events in Louisville history, including the Great Flood of 1937, the 1974 tornado, the winter snowstorm of 1994 and the Breonna Taylor protests.
"Flashback brings nostalgia for those people we loved and cherished, but also lets us reminisce about the events that have impacted our community," Casey Harden, senior director of engagement at the museum, said in a news release Tuesday.
The museum reached out to WDRB earlier this year in an effort to get pictures, including some of Presto the Magic Clown, whose show was popular on TV in the 1970s.
The exhibit is set to be open through Jan. 6.
