The new owners of a historic building in Ardmore, Oklahoma, are offering a $500 reward after several rare artifacts were stolen during a renovation. The items, which date back to the late 19th century and early 20th century, included two historic documents connected to the original Oklahoma Odd Fellows organization. The Pinillas, who have owned the property since January, also reported the theft of a vintage label from Jack Park's Bakery, which they hoped would inspire a revival of the business in its original location. The stolen items have no value but are irreplaceable to the Pinillas. They had planned to frame them when they opened the building to the public to preserve its history.
