Colorized photo from 1931
Original Title: Rupley building
Location: 208 S Main St, Victoria, Texas

This run down old building is the Rupley building, or sometimes known as the Rupley hotel. Built in the 1850's, it served as head quarters in the Civil war, later on as a hotel for whomever.

Over the years it housed commercial enterprises such as this clothing store and hamburger stand. People probably had no idea what this building was or how old it was. It was later torn down to make room for a new parking lot.

My name is Mike Savad, I create one of a kind images. Photo realistic, is what people think of first. I specialize in job themes, such as Pharmacist, Doctor, Firemen, Lawyer, etc. Steampunk is another favorite. I'm certain you will find something that you will like. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell and Paintings from the time of the Renaissance. Be sure to visit my Scene in Color section. I expertly restore and colorize black and white images. See the past come alive with color. Each image is painstakingly cleaned and repaired, colors are researched and shaded in. Images are designed to coordinate with the rest of my collection. The past was far more colorful than you would have imagined. Want something fun to do? Sometimes I hide...
