[First Christian Church]

On the back of photograph is typed: THIS PHOTOGRAPH TAKEN BY, A. F. WEAVER 1901 N. W. 6TH AVENUE MINERAL WELLS TEXAS DATE JUL 27 1964. The First Christian church occupies the site of the former Gibson Well Park and Pavilion in the 700 block of NW 2nd Avenue (the address on the photograph was A.F. Weaver's home.) Some of the limestone used to build the church was donated by latter-day owners of the historic Rock Pens on Dillingham Prairie, where the first meeting of the Northwest Texas Cattle Raisers' Association was held in 1876. Oliver Loving's son, J.C. Loving, wrote a letter to northwest Texas ranchers after the meeting, inviting them to meet the following February in Graham, where the Association was organized. C.C. Slaughter, once the richest man in Texas, owned the Rock Pens at the time of the Stock Raisers' meeting.

[Dallas Firefighter Class 121 #2]

Portrait of the Dallas Fire classmembers from February 1964 to July 1964 posing in front of the wall in two rows. In this black and white photograph, there are eight members in two rows, each member is looking straight ahead, arms at their sides, and trying to smile but a few seem to squinting at the camera. Since this is a black and white photo I'm not fully sure the true color of the uniforms, but they are all dressed in uniform. The uniforms look a bit wrinkled with large buttons, a badge on the upper left chest, hat less, but with a clean cut on each person’s head. Has a light tan filter on the photo.
