World's Largest
19th Century Emporium
Texas Jack's advertises itself as the world's largest and finest 19th century emporium. They may be exaggerating. They also call themselves the world's greatest store. Again, perhaps an exaggeration. It's Texas, y'know.
Address: Texas Jack's Wild West Outfitters,
117 N. Adams Street, Fredericksburg, Texas 78624; 800-TEX-JACK; Fax: 830-997-6074.
