Richard Petty Shows Us His Childhood House! (Prohibition Era Secret Hiding Spots!)
What happens here
Richard Petty leads the viewer through the front door into the main entryway. He explains that the house was redone in 1951 or 1952 when his father, Lee Petty, bought it from his mother's siblings. The main room to the right of the entrance was always the 'front room' or living room, which the family primarily used for Christmas celebrations. He also points out the original light fixtures and other preserved elements, emphasizing the house's authenticity to its mid-20th-century appearance. Petty also points out a built-in medicine cabinet, which his grandmother reportedly claimed was for her 'medicine' when revenue agents came looking for moonshine, hinting at secret compartments.
Goal: Tour the main entry and living areas, noting their original features and family uses.
