For
thousands of years man lived quite simply. Then like a sleeping giant our world
was awakened. In a mere hundred and twenty years of eternal time man progressed
from open hearth, grease lamps and ox carts to television, super sonic speed,
and atomic power. We have endeavored to show you the actual development of this
astounding progress as it was unfolded by our forefathers and by
ourselves.
Harold Warp, Founder
Relive America's Golden Yesterdays.
You have to see it to believe it... The largest private collection of Americana
anywhere. The Pioneer Village complex comprises 28 buildings on 20 acres housing
over 50,000 irreplaceable items of historical value, restored to operating order,
arranged in groups and also in the chronological order of their development. There
are 12 historic buildings around the circular "green". There's a Frontier Fort,
a real honest-to-goodness Pony Express Station, an Iron Horse, and a home made
of sod. There's a general store and a toy store, chock full of all the goods from
yesteryear. An original art collection including 25 Currier and Ives prints, 23
Jackson paintings, and the largest single collection of Rogers statues. You can
ride a priceless steam carousel, see 17 historic flying machines and marvel at
100 antique tractors. See a 1902 Cadillac and a 1903 Ford, both designed by Henry
Ford, plus 350 other antique cars, all displayed in their order of development.
For a relaxing trip into yesterday, come to Pioneer Village.
