Not a lot of value here. if you spent the money to restore  it you might not get your money back. $20.00 to $100.00 depends on conditions...

 Winters Texas  

Large ranches and cattle grazing developed in the Winters area in the 1870-1880's.  In the late 1880's, farmers began to settle on the fertile land.  In 1889, a general store was established and a small school house was built on land donated by rancher and land agent, Mr. J. N. Winters.  In 1890, townspeople agreed to name the town for Mr. Winters.  The new town was chartered in 1894.

The community continued to grow and in 1901 a brass band was organized.  The band traveled on a bandwagon drawn by four white horses and became well known as they traveled over West Texas.  The Abilene and Southern Railroad arrived in 1909 and a volunteer fire department was organized in 1911, with pick axes, a few buckets, and two ladders.  Churches were organized, representing several denominations.  The first bank--Winters State Bank--was established in 1906 by John Q. McAdams
