Gorgeous Art Deco inside and out!! Needs renovating but not too terribly. Jacksboro is a lovely little town too. We lunched at the Green Frog: good buffet, good service, busy restaurant!
Graham, 1932.
Architects: Withers & Thompson
Wow! Fantastic inside & out! Graham has the "largest downtown square in America" and is a busy, lovely town. The constable told us to check out the courtroom, which was also fantastic, but the paint needs restoration.

Aspermont, 1982.
Architects: Mills-Davis
We stayed at Hickman's Motel, had dinner and breakfast at Hickman's Restaurant - fortunately it was pretty good, because there weren't many other choices in town - for both food and lodging! The Motel was ridiculously cheap, but had all the amenities of higher-priced hotels.
