Sauce Dish, 1900-1903
- Columbia Meter Company Type D Wattmeter, 1910-1920 - In the late 1800s, companies that supplied electricity to consumers needed a way to measure how much customers used -- and then charge them accordingly. Inventive electrical engineers developed various methods to measure electric power and several companies began production of recording wattmeters. The Indiana-based Columbia Meter Company produced wattmeters during the first decades of the twentieth century before the company folded.

- Hemingray No. 10 Insulator, 1915-1950 - Insulators--made of poor electrical conductors such as glass, ceramic, plastic, or composite materials--help make electric power and communication transmission lines safe. They isolate wires from utility poles, transmission towers, and buildings--structures that are made of conductive materials that could cause signal degradation, power loss, fire, or pose a shock hazard if the lines touched them.

- "Battle Scenes of the Rebellion" Battle of Chattanooga, Civil War Panorama - In the 1880s, Thomas Clarkson Gordon, a self-taught artist and Civil War veteran, created a panorama depicting scenes from the Civil War. Gordon stitched together 15 paintings -- each 7 by 14 feet -- into a canvas roll more than 100 feet long. He toured his multi-paneled panorama throughout eastern Indiana, retelling the history of the conflict through his vivid illustrations.
