These photos are from a place called 1880s Town in Midland, South Dakota. All of the building were constructed for a western movie. A main Street set was constructed from old buildings and a number of Indian relics and antiques were borrowed from a man named Clarence Hullinger. When the movie company left they gave the main street set to Clarence for the use of his artifacts. The buildings now contain many antique pieces of furnishings. There is also a museum here with all kinds of western memorabilia including many items from the 1990 movie "Dances With Wolves" which starred Kevin Costner.

Really enjoyed your digital tour - thanks. I shall never see 1880s Town, but your pics are the next best thing. Del.
I really like your photos, especially the fifth one with the saloon in the foreground and the church in the background calling the sinners to come to the services.
