Arkansas Ties ... A Little Bit of This, a Little Bit of That, and a Whole Lot of Arkansas

Taborian Hall - Arkansas Flag & Banner 800 West Ninth Street Little Rock, AR 72201 Phone: (501) 375-7633/Fax: (501) 375-7638 Latitude: 34.7413558960001 Longitude: -92.2802429199999 Email: kmccoy@flagandbanner.com Listed on the National Register September 15, 1981 Store open Monday - Friday 8 - 5:30, Saturday 10 - 4   So when you walk through the doors, you find the most amazing gift shop in Little Rock.        They have everything you can imagine and I think they should be promoting themselves as "the place" for tourists to stop and shop. The little gift shop down at River Market has nothing on  Arkansas Flag and  Banner. Taborian Hall was purchased by Kerry McCoy back in the 1990's and is now home to her company Arkansas Flag & Banner.  Let's nosy through her building and see what we find. The bottom floor has this wonderful old tile, that has probably seen it's better day, but does give a glimpse into the grandeur of the past. This room was the former site of Doc's Pool Hall and is currently being used as a break room for employees.  Looks like a fun place to take a break.  There was a fire back in 1992 and many of the ceiling timbers had to be replaced. There are remnants of the Doc's pool hall: Offices previously used for doctors, attorneys and even a dentist.  Very little has changed. This is the company operating room.  Love all the bright colors in here.   Ok, so now let's move on up to the next floor....which is actually what we came to see.
