Claim: Sells Park, one of Athens’s best hidden treasures, was given by the Sells family to the United States in 1939 which ceded it to Athens, Ohio four decades later.
Evidence: It is claimed to be "one of Athens's best hidden treasures." Sells Park was formerly owned by the Sells family until it was given to the United States in 1939, and turned into a federal reserve. It was later ceded by the United States to Athens, Ohio, in 1979.
