Description
this is the inside of the Chickasaw bank at TISHOMINGO,Oklahoma.as I said before it was robbed only once by a teller named Furley that disappeared to never be found with $40,000.00
when I walked into it I thought I was actually in Mapps and richardphotos old west bank in the RMP
I decreased the light in post work to get a better feel for the time period
I have some sad news that the mother duck has lost 3 babies and a lady told me she did have 10. maybe hawks or dogs
some information on the Capitol building
Chickasha Nan Apisa Aboa
Chickasaw capitol
construction began April 1898 on the Chickasaw Capitol building. it was built of red granite from the Pennington Creek Quarry.the granite blocks weighed 175 pounds a cubic foot and were pulled horses and mules
completed in 7 months at the cost of $15,000.it has more than 8000 sq feet.
in 1910 it was sold to county in 1910 for $7500.00. the tribal ownership was reestablished in 1992 for the cost $575,000.00
seems to me the Chickasaw tribe got screwed royally, but now with their casinos they are screwing the pale face
thanks for viewing and any comments

Great period photo. Poor duckies. So hard out there in the real world!
really cool, Richard thanks for the view sorry to hear about the ducks warm hug, Linda
As I understand, the tribe did get some retribution when they sold the mineral rights to their land. But over the course of history, it was not enough to patch the wounds and wrongs done to them. But which tribe ever got back what they had lost?
Awww the poor ducks that's sad. I like antique stuff so this appeals to me :) Cathy xoxoxo
Wonderfully preserved interior and your addition of the PW adds to the 'old time' feel of the view inside.
great shot and postwork. I like your Chicasaw serie

Very cool photo Richard, and I do think the darker aspect does give it more of an atmosphere of a bygone time. Excellent! Lea
