BY STACEY SHEPARD, staff writer, The Bakersfield Californian
The storied history of a Bakersfield home will be the subject of one of Huell Howser's upcoming shows on public television. The Victorian-style house, now located at the southwest corner of Rosedale Highway and Calloway Drive, was built in downtown Bakersfield in the early 1900s by a legendary foreman at the Tejon Ranch. In March, the Kern County Museum voted to add the house to its collection of historic structures. Howser's visit in June will coincide with the museum's kickoff campaign to raise the $300,000 needed to move and restore the house.
