That's the one, Charlie the name just wouldn't come to me this morning.  If
I recall correctly they have two shows a year, a small spring show in April
and the larger main show in August.

Vaughn,  I found a button that I think might  be from that show.
It says C.V. Antique Engine & Machinery Ass'n., Inc.
I visit in the Hagerstown Md area a couple of times a year and given the 
time I'm always looking for a show to take in so this might or might not be

the right one.  I remember going out of town to the west of the main drag,

then veering off to the right (N/W) I think on a kind of crooked road.  The

show grounds were on the left and the lot sloped down hill from right to 
left as you face it from the road.

The button says Twin Bridges Showground.
