On Tuesday, November 16, 2021, the building that housed Oxford‘s original head shop, Local Color, was demolished. The house was recently sold after owner William “Willie” Wallace suffered a stroke earlier this year. Willie now resides in an assisted living home in Oxford.

These photographs were shot by Newt Rayburn and Bill Beckwith.
