(December 24, 2007)--Looking for that last minute holiday present with a price tag in the $1 million range?

The gift isn't guaranteed in time for Christmas because the bidding runs through Wednesday for the historic business district of the Coryell County town of The Grove.

It's listed on eBay, with the headline: "Last chance to own an authentic Texas museum town."

Five buildings, including a blacksmith shop, are part of the half-acre package.

The eBay posting says a more than century-old hand-dug well "is still wet today."

Antiques collector Moody Anderson of Austin bought The Grove district in 1972.

The Grove is a community of about 100.
