Nickel, Ensor & McClure Mansion Rumor

Is it true that the McClure Mansion (a.k.a Nickel and Ensor Mansion, built back in 1906) is on the auction block and in sad condition with birds and bats taking it over?

How Sad!

This Old Pioneer Home resides on Nickels Hill, at Locust & 14th Street, in Alva, Oklahoma. Perhaps Rod is correct that it needs to be restored to a pioneer museum as the Phillips museum in Bartlesville, Oklahoma.

Another question ... Who was the architect that built the Nickel mansion? Was it someone like George Franklin Barber?

If anyone out there has any old photos (inside and out) of this Nickel Mansion, we would love to share them with everyone here at "The OkieLegacy."
