House of Lords Program
On April 23, 2010, the Post Library was
transformed into the infamous House of Lords saloon and gambling hall.
Library staff dressed as bar maids and dealers. Post Library
director Leslie Simpson, dressed as Prohibition activist Carrie Nation,
gave a historical program about the House of Lords. The
establishment operated at 317 Main from about 1890 until Prohibition
closed it down around 1920.
Wheeling and dealing, barmaids, and Carrie Nation.
The facade surrounding
the entrance to the Post Library was installed in March 2010.
Artist Dianne Cantrell
built and painted the facade to recreate the look of the Posts' home
at 2630 E. 15th. To see more of Cantrell's amazing
