The Gibson Bicentennial Commission has made several collectible items available for purchase to celebrate Gibson County’s 200th anniversary. This includes t-shirts, ornaments, posters and more. Souvenirs can be purchased at any Gibson County Chambers including the Greater Gibson County Chamber of Commerce, Humboldt Chamber of Commerce and Milan Chamber of Commerce. T-shirts are $20, posters are $5 and ornaments are $10.
