Where Is This?

This is a discussion on Where Is This? within the Dallas / Fort Worth forums, part of the Texas category; The forum name is a clue. However, think "Where The West Begins;" not "Where The East Peters Out."...

I'll be over in Ft. Worth today with 4 hours to kill and a camera at hand. I think I know where that is, if so, I'll get a photo of it.

Lets See .......I wonder if Amon Carter's folks would know anything about that?????

(That's a hint guys. After 45 years in this place it really is a No-Brainier!)

Lightbulb Fort Worth Star Telegram Building - 02-14-2006, 10:16 PM


It's the insignia above the main doors on the Fort Worth Star Telegram (newspaper) Building in downtown Fort Worth.

Amon Carter (1879-1955), publisher of the FWST and prime philanthropist of the city, did not have a high opinion of Dallas and reportedly said that "Fort Worth was where the West began and Dallas was where the East petered out."
