Arkansas Postcard Past: Little Rock, circa 1955

Little Rock, circa 1955: The Museum of Natural History in the old arsenal building of MacArthur Park exhibited this bedroom where the WWII hero General Douglas MacArthur was born in 1880. The antique furniture was supposed to match the style of the time. Today, the building is home to the great Arkansas Museum of Military History; well worth a visit.
