(Image of the Hall's Curator). Online is the Mall Hall of Fame, a description of many across America. Some Texas (mostly Houston and Dallas) are represented. The articles are lengthy for the casual reader with photos. Self-description: "One of many classic mall and retro retail internet sites, the MALL HALL OF FAME is a "Mid-mod" mall museum, covering shopping centers of America's mid-20th century (1950-1979).
