The Ozark Queen

The Ozark Queen was the last steamboat to dock at Calico Landing in 1903 just before the opening of the railroad.  This scale model of the Queen helps us share the story of our past.  It was constructed by Trustee Emeritus Ed Matthews in memory of Captain Robert C. Matthews.

These are just a few of the historical artifacts in our collection:

The Calico Rocket, c. 1903

No Smoking Sign, Calico Rock Depot, c. 1910

Native American Grinding Stone, c. 1820

Telegraph Machine, Calico Rock Depot, c. 1910

Cherokee Alphabet Tablet, c. 1810

Calico Rock Telephone Exchange Headset, c. 1950

We are always looking for new items for our collection.
