Markers in Time: The Jockey Club
February 17, 2026
In 1920, Woodrow “Buster” Anderson opened the Jockey Club Barbershop — the first Black-owned barbershop in Waco. It was originally located in the square around Waco City Hall. The barbershop was designated as a City of Waco Historic Landmark in 2023, and it continues to serve its community on Elm Avenue.
