Photos & Postcards from Bowie County and Texarkana
A lot of the photos were missing by the time
I got this county. When there was a great deal of information included with the missing photos, I moved the information to an
appropriate page (families, history, news articles, etc.). This is a graphic intensive page and the thumbnails will take a minute
to load.

This building was torn down, sometime in the 1970's. It was located between Hickory and Pecan street at Short 9th?
or close to that area, a block or so behind the old A & W Drive Inn, which is also gone but not forgotten. |
