Wallace was always the leader in culture of the Coeur D Alene Mining District.
Here it is, ladies and gentlemen, the Wallace Opera House which was built on the site of the "modern" day Wallace swimming pool. So,if you thought that Wallace culture is confined to the Lead Creek Derby, as cultural as drinking beer and watching a beach ball float down a polluted creek is, well, you are wrong. Wallace had a genuine opera house at one time. Sorry this picture did not scan better, but I found in in my mother's scrapbook of old Wallace things, and it did not fit my scanner and it had lost a corner over the years.
