Tampico, c. 1860. This watercolor was painted by William Ball in 1925 under the direction of OfAC history professor, John Homer, based upon the memories of several 1850s-era Tampico residents. The building on the hill to the left (west) was thought to have been an old schoolhouse by both Gene and Elvera Glender, who found evidence of a building in that general location during the 1920s and 1930s. The main road through town formed a link to the southern route of the Oregon Trail in the 1840s and was probably developed into a race track during the 1950s. The peak to the Glender's home can be seen in the middle background; Smoth Peak is in the background; and Coffin Butte is the hill to the east. Caption as printed, p. 98.
The Arcade Saloon, 1904 Caption as printed, p. 98.
