Pryor was an important community along the route, and this image shows a group of cars spanning the roadway on Graham Avenue. In the background, one can observe a large flagpole. A giant American flag was on this pole and was a featured attraction in the middle of the street. Pryor had a devastating tornado that damaged or destroyed most of the buildings in this photograph in 1942.
