Paul B. Johnson State Park is located near Wiggins. The park used to have on display one of the nicer vintage U.S. state flag collections that I have ever seen. All of the flags hung vertically in the foyer of the park's main office. The collection appeared to have been assembled in the late 1940's or early 1950's. It included old double sided Massachusetts and South Dakota flags, a pre-1956 Georgia flag, and the flags of Kansas, Montana, and Wisconsin did not have their collective names written on them. Additionally, the Alabama flag was square while the flags of Arizona, Hawaii, and Ohio were all sewn.
