Connected to the antique shop is a section featuring photographs by Jim Richardson of National Geographic. National Geographic Magazine featured Cuba, Kansas in the May, 2004 edition. A permanent exhibit of photographer Jim Richardson's images of the people and events of the community show the best of life in rural America. The photos are on display here at our shop, Cuba Antiques & Collectibles. Jim has been coming to Cuba to photograph life in a small town for the past 30 years. Cuba and Jim were featured on the CBS Sunday Morning show which was filmed during the National Geographic Celebration.
