There was an Infant Incubator or Baby Incubator exhibition that opened in the Colonnade at Olentangy Park on May 2, 1908.[1] At least one premature baby was given artificial food and air and became well. The baby replaced a ragdoll stage prop in the play, "The Heir to the Hoorah," performed that year.[2] This seemed to be only open for the 1908 season.
