BIRD CAGE THEATRE

One of the most famous buildings in Tombstone, Arizona. They say there is a ghost within the Tombstone building and was televised nationwide on the Discovery Channel. I hope there are NO ghosts within our four, yes four, Bird Cage Theatres. This building is number III of the IV. We have done some experimental work on the buildings, but you can't tell it, unless you hold it.

Take note of some of the detail around the structure. There is a hitching post, water trough, hanging sign, and handcarved brick over the door and windows. Be aware that the enlargement is full screen and then some. As for the materials used, the front, two sides, and back are plaster. We are pleased with the results. The pictures will tell you that. The handcarved brick is also plaster. The roof is tin from Russellville, Arizona. The doors and trim from Tombstone, Arizona. The boardwalk, water trough, and sign are from Dos Cabezas, Arizona and the base is 150 year old Tennessee barn wood.
