"Guthrie: A Journey Through Time and Places" Step into the captivating world of Guthrie, where history, culture, and diverse stories intertwine. From its humble beginnings at Clifton College in Bristol back in 1867 to becoming a bustling city in Oklahoma Territory, it has left an indelible mark on different corners of the globe. One iconic image takes us to Moses Weinberger's Same Old Moses Saloon at 211 West Harrison Avenue in Guthrie. Captured around 1900, this photograph showcases Weinberger alongside bartenders Mack O'Brien and Ike Reed. It stands as a testament to their pioneering spirit as they operated the first legal saloon in the Oklahoma Territory since 1890. Traveling across continents, we encounter an advertisement for Guthrie & Wells' Stained Glass Windows in Glasgow. These exquisite works of art bring beauty and light into spaces while reflecting the craftsmanship that defines Guthrie's legacy. The journey continues with a glimpse into Edinburgh through Modern Athenians plate 21. This artistic portrayal offers insight into the vibrant cultural scene that once thrived within these ancient streets. Yet not all moments captured are joyous; some depict significant historical events like The General Strike or Government leaders making crucial decisions that shaped nations. Amongst them all stands Dr. Guthrie Preaching—a figure whose words resonated deeply with those who sought guidance during times of uncertainty. Books by Anstey remind us of how literature can transport us to different worlds, allowing our imaginations to roam freely beyond physical boundaries—much like our exploration through time and places called Guthrie. Artistry extends beyond words onto canvas as we discover Mrs. James Guthrie's possible monogrammed signature lower right on top of a chair leg—an intimate connection between artist and subject frozen forever within this piece. Architecture plays its part too; Leonard Rome Guthrie FRIBA leaves his mark on buildings that stand tall today—a testament to his vision and skill.
