The House of Lords: The Place of Quality

House of Lords Bar in Joplin Missouri

For the early shining decades of Joplin’s history, there was one place to have a drink and a meal. It was the House of Lords. It was an attitude cultivated by the establishment, as shown in the advertisement below from the first decade of the 1900’s. Also below is a glimpse inside the famed locale, a view of the cafe area and above, the bar.

    I have some large, old photographs of The House of Lords and Deep Rock Bar in Joplin. The one of the Deep Rock Bar has 1905 written on it. There are some people posing in the bar. I would like to see if anybody can identify any of the people in the pictures.
