Hall Tree Front View

Originally the design of this hall /coat tree came from the banks of the Missouri River. Down stream from the wreck of the steamboat Montana, (about 600 to 700 feet) the remnants of this hall tree were found buried in the sand banks in several bits and pieces. Originally made from cypress, the pieces were fit together and a pattern to make a new hall tree was reconstructed.

When the river levels drop in the St. Charles, Missouri, area, the skeleton of this grand steamboat are exposed. The steamboat Montana is still visible today when the Missouri river levels drop. Whether or not this hall tree was part of the steamboat wreck is up for discussion.
