The exterior set for Tara, the mansion from “Gone With The Wind,” was built in 1938 (principal photography began on January 29, 1939) and yet it was still standing 20 years later, when this aerial photo (I assume that dark thing on the left was part of the aircraft) was taken during the summer of 1958. David O. Selznick owned the backlot known as “Forty Acres” from 1935 to 1957, after which it became part of the Desilu empire. (Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball would own it for another 10 years.) As we can see, Tara was in a fairly sad state of weathered disrepair by 1958. It was disassembled and removed in 1959, and a few years later that spot became Stalag 13 in the TV show, “Hogan’s Heroes.”
