Vintage was the focus of Callaway Heritage Day celebrated in Fulton over the weekend.
The event celebrated the legacy of John Board and his farm. He moved to Missouri shortly after the state was established, and founded a 160-acre farm near Shamrock in Callaway County where he stayed his whole life.
The event featured antique items, such as cars, trucks, tractors and quilts, as well as offering a parade and food vendors.
