Imagine all the history we dont know because it was thrown out or destroyed

Love that Dave Ward! Great Journalist!!🤗

I have two excellent locations for a Houston history museum: the original Rufus Cage Elementary and the original Brookline Elementary, both on Telephone Road. HISD is happily letting them rot away.

Incredible photos!!

This is what you call human error. There was a African American High School in Austin Texas in the 1950s had trophies from football winnings and all type of awards and pictures enough to fill a 18 wheeler, when the state of whom ever make those decision to stop by to re model the school someone made the decision to through all the pictures away then there was a phone call to a lady a statue and when she found out about it she immediately went Renee rental truck and began to get the truck loaded with all the African American Awards. If it had not been for this lady we never would have gotten a chance to see all the beautiful documentation from Anderson High School in Austin Texas. Hats off to this lady. So yes it's a human error and it's all about money and the title of it is who cares. Hats off to the gentleman and his father for going the extra mile to save all history it is priceless. And it's funny how now all of a sudden people think it was a great thing when back in the day the pictures were trash. Congratulations to this family and the families who went the extra mile to say beautiful history

That wasn’t Buff Sta behind the dome. It’s: Colt45 stadium

I grew up in Houston in the 90s. Gotta admit, it was kind of a dump around then. But wow the 1930s to 50s seemed amazing.

I have a portrait of my great great grandmother taken in the 1860s at Wright Studio at 502 Main Street. A.H. Hitchler owner.

Wow well rescued 👍

Hopefully those precious memories gets lost forever

Great photos but respectfully, the stadium mentioned behind the Astrodome is the pre-Astros Colt 45 stadium, not the Buff's stadium.

is there a place we can view the photos today?

I don’t think that picture behind the Astrodome is Buff stadium. That stadium was on the Gulf freeway where Fingers furniture sat for years. That small stadium was Colt Stadium. Went there with hundreds of little leaguers and watch Don Dryrdale pitch in our hot cotton uniforms

I love Houston. That's my home town. What ever happened to Dave ward Mernava prez.

Not Buff Stadium! That is Colt Stadium by the Dome..
