From Wikipedia:

O.D. Gunn Trade and Sale Barn

The O.D. Gunn Trade and Sale Barn is a historic commercial agricultural building at 10 Anna Street in Quitman, Arkansas. It is a rectangular wood-frame structure with a monitor gabled roof. Its exterior is clad in metal sheathing scored to resemble brick. The roof has exposed rafter ends, and heavy Craftsman style brackets at the front-facing gable end. It was built about 1910 by Offie Dorris Gunn, who used it to deal in horses and mules. It is a particularly well-preserved barn of the type used for this purpose in the early 20th century.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.
