The Jewell Theater stood on this site. Originally known as the Jefferson, it was erected circa 1910 by Harry S. Jewell and became the home of the nationally telecast Ozark Jubilee, seen on ABC-TV from 1954 through 1960. Starring musical legend Clyde Red Foley, the Jubilee favorably introduced millions of viewers to talented Ozarkers and inspired those viewers to travel to the Ozarks, where they experienced the beauty of Springfield and the entire area.
