GALLERY 3

Crossing Main Street from the Hotel you pause at the soda fountain in the Drug Store. The WWII Pratt Army Air Base display is also in this area.

As you enter Gallery 3 your eyes will go first to the Military display of all wars dating back to the Civil War through Desert Storm.

Our radio room features one of Pratt County's first record players, radios, TV's and radio broadcasting studio. The importance of the coming of the railroad is evident in our large display area and also features a 3/4 size caboose.

The Wheat Doll, dedicated to the wheat farmers of Pratt County who had the courage to endure the hardships of our pioneer days, presides over the three main industries that helped build Pratt County--cattle, agriculture and oil. Examples of farm machinery, including a miniature display, illustrate early day farming methods.

You will think that you are in an old time village as you stroll past The Print Shop, the undertaker, carpenter shop, village blacksmith, auto repair shop, the City of Pratt fire house, the Coterie Library and the photographer.

 

GALLERY 4

Our newest gallery is reached by going upstairs and it features a complete chapel dating to the 1950's in which we can accommodate small weddings and services.

Pratt is the home of the Miss Kansas Pageant and a display features pictures of each Miss Kansas since 1955 and also the three that went on to become Miss America. Memorabilia from the pageants, the contestants and other articles are also displayed.

Other areas include medical equipment of Pratt doctors, the history of the 4-H and Pratt County Fair, the IOOF Lodge and the Masonic Lodge. There is additional room for future displays.

THE GENE ROSE COLLECTION

A woodworking hobby has resulted in a remarkable collection of miniature wood reproductions. Gene Rose, in his "spare time" has crafted replicas of early model cars, airplanes, and trains.


The airplane collection begins with the renowned World War I Jenny, and includes many models flown in World War II.



There are six complete trains on tracks so realistic one expects them to report for duty.


Most spectacular, however, is the miniature pioneer village. Included in its twenty buildings are the church, school, hardware store, livestock sale pens, lumber yard, bank, mill, fire station, livery, and a train waiting at the stations. Many of the buildings are completely furnished on the inside.


Mr. Rose is also a collector. His display of scale model pioneer farm machines and wagons, as well as sailing ships, several of which were crafted by Mr. Rose, is spectacular.


Beside the miniature pioneer village Mr Rose has also made a miniature farmstead which features many of the barns, sheds, etc. beside the farm home where the table is set waiting for the men to come in for a meal.
