This “catchall” basket is perfect to learn basic basketry techniques while spending the day practicing this ancient and meditative craft. Basketry has roots and traditions crossing the globe, the skills and patterns differing, but all valuing both utility and beauty- where better than a history museum to dive into this practice together. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/events/artists-in-the-house-fundraiser monthly 0.5 2026-02-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1769109964945-UHJFCZUJER744TFYRNES/2026_AITH_Final_Logo.png Events - Artists in the House : An Art Exhibit & Fundraiser - Call for Art: Henry Sheldon Museum's 2026 Artist in the House Exhibition and Fundraiser https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/events/embroidery-workshop-with-eman-hayyat monthly 0.5 2026-01-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/4807e2f1-1b04-4de6-bdf7-c60726712e11/tatreez.jpg Events - Embroidery Workshop with Eman Hayyat - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/events/community-tempestry-project monthly 0.5 2026-01-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/405695a7-b028-4c63-8b18-f89affd28091/mike+roy+tempestry.png Events - Community Tempestry Project - Make it stand out Average temperatures in Addison County from 1923 -2023.

Bryant/Drake Silhouette and Collection, 1807-1860s The double silhouette of Sylvia Drake (1784-1867) and Charity Bryant (1777-1851) of Weybridge, Vermont, is considered the earliest known image of a same-sex couple in the U.S. The portraits in profile dating from around 1810 are framed in silk and braids of human hair looped in the shape of a heart. Silhouette art was a popular portraiture format in the pre-photography era prior to 1839. The double silhouette is part of the Drake/Bryant voluminous collection of correspondence, poems, diaries, and business records that document their lives and their forty-plus year relationship. The book, Charity & Sylvia: A Same-Sex Marriage in Early America (2014) by Rachel Hope Cleves, was largely based on the Center’s archival collection. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721587971-BELKHXWIC8S5CC8B98SA/ephemera.jpg Collection Highlights - Addison County Entertainment Ephemera, 1860-1920s The Sheldon archival collection is particularly rich in entertainment and performance ephemera. One of the collection’s greatest attributes is that it attests to a robust and diverse social life in Vermont towns during the 19th and early 20th centuries. A wide variety of entertainment graced Addison County, bringing moments of comedy, tragedy, and celebration and witnessing political and social change. Audiences enjoyed theatrical performances, musical concerts, vaudeville and minstrel shows, traveling circuses, concerts, events, dances and lectures. Performers came from far away, but just as many were local individuals and groups. From posters, playbills, programs, broadsides, tickets, and other ephemera, a broad range of subjects and historical events emerge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721609885-7R0UUYG8B7FUY08M2J1O/power+loom.jpg Collection Highlights - Power Loom Drawings by Isaac Ebenezer Markham, 1814-1825 A sketchbook and close to sixty original power loom drawings, many in watercolor, were executed between 1814 and 1825 by a young Middlebury draftsman, Isaac Ebenezer Markham (1795-1825). The images are considered the earliest-known set of textile machine maker’s workshop drawings in the U.S. Among them is a view of the Boston Manufacturing Co. at Waltham, Mass. from c. 1820, also thought to be one of the earliest views of mills in Waltham. After travelling to other textile mills across New England, Isaac E. Markham returned to Middlebury, where he died of typhus. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721631899-F021KVPM1ZCE5IHKVGYV/chipman+atlas.jpg Collection Highlights - Manuscripts Maps by Sarah H. Chipman, 1823 A hand-drawn, beautiful miniature atlas, “A Book of Penmanship,” was created in 1823 by Susan H. Chipman (1808-1848), while a student at Miss Page’s School for girls in Middlebury. It is a remarkable example of the influence that a pioneering reformer of female education, Emma Willard, had upon local schooling. Willard introduced geography and astronomy into the girl’s curriculum while teaching in one of the first in the country female seminaries in Middlebury in the early 1800s. Chipman’s booklet contains thirty hand-colored maps accompanied by exquisitely rendered in ornamental calligraphy descriptive passages on Geography, the Solar System, and Climates. Susan H. was a daughter of Daniel Chipman, an early local settler, legislator and author. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721650816-YJD2EFDHW4TVP0VTVXWN/HLS+house+book.jpg Collection Highlights - "House Book", Henry L. Sheldon's Scrapbook #173, 1876-1901 Henry L. Sheldon compiled over 200 scrapbooks, many focusing on early Middlebury history, its citizens and community development. The highlights among them is scrapbook #173, the “House Book,” that contains a history of every building in the Village of Middlebury compiled by Sheldon in 1876 and updated in 1901. In addition, the scrapbook includes extensive information about the 1891 Middlebury fire, the Weeks family genealogy, birth records in 1896 kept by Dr. Daniel C. Noble, photographs, and more. The building information was updated by the Center’s volunteers as the “Building History Register” project. The updated records are now frequently consulted by Middlebury property owners. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721666467-L7RPGHRBHC1PD2XHZIEQ/crystoleum.jpeg Collection Highlights - Crystoleum Portrait of Joseph Battell, c. 1890 Crystoleum, or American ivorytype, is a rare photographic technique that was mostly practiced in Europe. This portrait is of Joseph Battell (1839-1915), a local early environmentalist, philanthropist, Morgan horse breeder, and a person behind many of Middlebury’s architectural landmarks. Crystoleum consists of a photograph printed on the inside of a convex glass that is adhered to a bottom piece of paper or glass with a rudimentary painted portrait that aligns with a top one. This technique was an early attempt of introducing color into photography. The portrait was recently identified and restored and is one of a few known portraits of Joseph Battell. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721680941-MTIXOMSQP6OHVNCX3K0D/merrill+sermon.jpg Collection Highlights - Semicentennial Sermon by Thomas A. Merrill, 1840 The “Semicentennial Sermon Containing a History of Middlebury...,” was delivered by Reverend Thomas A. Merrill in 1840 on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of establishment of the Congregational Church in Middlebury. It is considered one of the earliest sources of information about the history of the town from one who had witnessed much of it. Thomas A. Merrill (1780-1855), a graduate of Dartmouth College, came to Middlebury in 1804 as a tutor at Middlebury College. In 1805 he was ordained and served as pastor at the Middlebury Congregational Church during the turbulent era of the Second Great Awakening, a religious revival, a position he held until 1842. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721698922-R83M45TKHMGV1R34GGP9/image-asset.jpeg Collection Highlights - Music of the Stewart, Battell, and Swift Families, 1800s-1910s One of the most outstanding components of the Stewart-Swift Research Center’s musical holdings are those belonging to the Stewart, Battell, and Swift families in Middlebury. Together they form an unusual, historically valuable compilation of sheet music and bound music collected over several generations in a single area. Some family members bound their sheet music into volumes, and “The Bloomer Schottisch,” dated 1851, is part of a binder’s volume belonging to Emma Battell. This family music collection tells an important historical story and constitutes a significant resource for scholars of American music, also revealing much about 19th-century culture, particularly that of women, in New England and in the broader U.S. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/fees-reproductions daily 0.75 2020-12-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1587213349741-26GT3KJXFJ013I9SBX0F/Dean_1xSilver+Lake+Hotel%2C+u+17+people+on+porch+and+grass+gp+B.jpg Fees & Reproductions https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1586609628198-ED9JPTJ78TSCXMXMN8VI/marionette_poster.jpg Fees & Reproductions Marionette show (poster detail), Middlebury, 1928.

Vermont Female Farmers October 1 – January 3 With passion, labor, care, and grit at its core, this striking portrait series by JuanCarlos González offers a powerful and intimate look into the lives of farmers shaping the landscape and future of Vermont agriculture. The exhibition captures moments of deep focus, strength, joy, and resilience — honoring the often-overlooked stories of women who farm the Green Mountain State. Complementing the photography are agricultural-related artifacts and ephemera from the Museum’s collection. These additions create meaningful dialogues between past and present, offering reflections on our Addison County landscape and farming heritage. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/5e3b9ba3-f2c9-4012-8a29-6dac0ec3678f/Sampler+for+website.jpg PAST EXHIBITS MAIN - Stitching Memories: Daughters, Samplers, and Family Records May 20 - January 3 Samplers are beautiful mementos of girlhood. The daughters of a family would be taught how to sew through stitching decorative samplers that would often be displayed in their homes. The samplers gathered in this exhibit focus on the many aspects of the lives of these girls, all of whom had fathers or grandfathers who fought in the Revolutionary War and were the first generations of women who grew up as American citizens. Textile creation was historically the realm of women and girls, and so the material culture of textiles can teach us many things about their daily lives. Samplers are no different. In stitching verses, girls emphasized the gender roles laid out for them. In stitching family records, they preserved not only their family lineage and home life, but also the memory of lost siblings. Above all, the act of sewing taught them skills that would be useful as a wife and mother, both inside and outside the home. From practical and religious education, to family loss, record keeping, and girls’ potential economic prospects, their stitches memorialize their place in the family and the culture that created them. This exhibit was organized by Middlebury College student Julia Breckenridge as part of the 2025 Vermont statewide Sampler Driving Tour. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/5179ad6e-b67a-49e3-bb31-e0f0126e3e71/Inkwell.jpg PAST EXHIBITS MAIN - Material Narratives: Ornament & Identity May 20 - January 3 Material objects are profound expressions of identity, memory and belief. Adornment, whether through intricate craftmanship, symbolic decoration, or functional design, elevates objects beyond utilitarian purposes and transforms them into reflections of personal stories and societal values. Organized by students of Professor Erin Sassin’s course at Middlebury College, this exhibition is the result of meticulous research and thoughtful curation. Students assembled a diverse collection of objects that show how adornment across centuries and cultures both shape and reflects the human experience. Viewers are invited to engage with these artifacts and contemplate how we imbue objects with meaning to navigate the complexities of life, death, beauty and belonging. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1747334538360-7Z1Y7ZAPT1QD14VHDKHV/Untitled++by++A.Z..jpg PAST EXHIBITS MAIN - Finding Hope Within: Healing & Transformation Through the Making of Art Within the Carceral System May 21 - September 30 In her recent book Marking Time: Art in the Age of Mass Incarceration, Nicole Fleetwood observes, “Prison art is part of the long history of captive people envisioning freedom—creating art, imagining worlds, and finding ways to resist and survive.” Our summer exhibition Finding Hope Within features works of art that have emerged through the carceral system in Vermont alongside historical artifacts from the collection of the Henry Sheldon Museum. The original artworks included in this exhibit were curated by A Revolutionary Press and Vermont Works for Women for their Finding Hope Within travelling exhibit.. This exhibition posits art-making as a transformative, healing, and cathartic practice that can transform one’s relationship to community, to the environment, and to the self. The act of creation creates a spark of hope for the future. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/5354daf3-cecc-4ffd-9b31-9f168dce4ed9/Slow+Seeing.jpg PAST EXHIBITS MAIN - Slow Seeing May 20 - November 7 In this room, we invite you to slow down and really look.

What is retained and what is forgotten in historical repositories? Local history museums and archives are vital to building healthy communities and to anchoring our understanding of the world around us. Collage artists have unique skills that are particularly useful in our historical moment. On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Sheldon Stewart-Swift Research Center, an international network of collage artists was invited to engage the Sheldon archival collections. Under the curatorial direction of Kolaj Institute Director Ric Kasini Kadour, and with the support of the Research Center staff, twenty-three artists from seven countries created collage prints that reflect upon the idea of community in the 21st-century world.

This exhibit explores his life, myriad of collecting pursuits, the establishment of what has become known as the oldest community-based Museum in the country, and an outstanding archive, the Stewart-Swift Research Center. Henry amassed one of the richest but little known historical collections in all New England, rendering Middlebury perhaps one of the best documented towns in the entire region. On view will be variety of historical documents, photographs, scrapbooks, autographs, Middlebury imprints, diaries, music ephemera, relics, a lock of Napoleon’s hair, and more.

Her Sheldon Museum exhibit From the Heart features maquettes and drawings that reflect her artistic process plus three robust sculptures (two metal, one wooden) installed in the Museum’s garden. “My sculpture isn’t precious; it invites participation: with people, and with the sun, shadows and alignments at different seasons of the year. The position of the sun, moon and stars creates a structure, as a painter uses a rectangle for a frame of reference. Inspiration also comes from curves seen in nature.” Watch an interview with Kate here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1623954276415-H3QFR911ZA7XJMDLWH0H/image-asset.jpeg PAST EXHIBITS MAIN - Drawing On The Past By Miriam Adams Through the juxtaposition of natural and man-made objects, Miriam Adams creates images of striking intimacy. .

Quilting became a means of self-expression, as well as a way of stitching female community networks together in common cause. Quilting bees were the social events of the year, as women joined to transform a practical bed covering into a wonderful art form. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/language-of-trees daily 0.75 2022-07-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1658344766527-KL0GW46M4XNYLVQW29YB/Faun.jpg Language of Trees - Faun https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1658344769942-1HHV9Q2NCJP8DMF67T8A/Mother+and+chick+auto+correct.jpg Language of Trees - Mother and Chick https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1658344769718-BJF91XMZ1M7VU140R337/new+work+1.jpg Language of Trees https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1658344771170-V2OZ9CW4EM8RV0LE7P5I/new+work+4.jpg Language of Trees https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1658344775597-X3SNEHLPI0AELRLHXZ0H/Nice+Catch.jpg Language of Trees - The Catch https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1658344773469-86DDHU5278ZCD1TVZ3SC/Rooster2.jpg Language of Trees - Rooster https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1658344874199-RKFVU8PTRQ7NGH84M93G/Three%2BGenerations.jpg Language of Trees - Three Generations https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/finding-aids daily 0.75 2020-05-29 https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/a-neighbor-project daily 0.75 2020-09-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1593701108795-HB3XDCLEZWXIPIP8MXJY/IMG_6913.jpg A Neighbor Project: The Downtown Middlebury Portrait https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1593699298887-DWUSMXA96R55T2P6S7IV/Rebecca-Kinkead-photo-by-Caleb-Kenna.jpg A Neighbor Project: The Downtown Middlebury Portrait Photo by Caleb Kenna https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1593701108795-HB3XDCLEZWXIPIP8MXJY/IMG_6913.jpg A Neighbor Project: The Downtown Middlebury Portrait https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1593699298887-DWUSMXA96R55T2P6S7IV/Rebecca-Kinkead-photo-by-Caleb-Kenna.jpg A Neighbor Project: The Downtown Middlebury Portrait Photo by Caleb Kenna https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/kinkead-workshop daily 0.75 2020-07-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1594688641656-ZJ0B9ZPCOPR6BFKCPSII/Rebecca+Kinkead%2C+photo+by+Sue+Schlabach+copy.jpg Kinkead Workshop Payment form Rebecca Kinkead, photo by Sue Schlabach https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1594688641656-ZJ0B9ZPCOPR6BFKCPSII/Rebecca+Kinkead%2C+photo+by+Sue+Schlabach+copy.jpg Kinkead Workshop Payment form Rebecca Kinkead, photo by Sue Schlabach https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/whimsical-wonders daily 0.75 2022-07-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/b96f9b12-7ae3-43a0-b1ff-1f0cddda12b8/Adirondack+Faerie+Lodge.jpg Whimsical Wonders - The Adirondack Faerie Lodge: This rustic Fairy house is made from White Birch Bark and branches, a large shelf fungus, White Cedar twigs, Red Pine bark, tree fungus, Red Pine cones, wild grape tendrils, river pebbles, natural Monarch butterfly wings (ethically collected) wool felt, silk florals, with battery-powered LED lighting.

Generally, I design Faerie houses that work very hard to avoid strong, straight lines. In this sculpture it's all about embracing that linearity and celebrating it without reservation. It is also partially inspired by the works of landscape architect Dan Kiley who loved the use of linear forms in the landscape. Made from White Birch bark, Dogwood twigs, Wild Cherry twigs, raffia, vintage glass beads and velvet leaves, hand-dyed wool, cotton and rayon ribbons, silk botanicals, natural river pebbles, Birch Ply with handmade mulberry papers, rice papers and a needle-felted wool rug in the fully finished interior.

With a complex roof covered in hundreds of individually cut Golden Birch bark shingles and an abundance of delicate, gabled windows this sculpture looks good from any angle. This sculpture is made using White Birch bark, White Cedar twigs and small branches all peeled by the winter ice in mountain streams, Golden Birch bark, handmade papers, silk and Mulberry paper flowers, vintage beads and hand-dyed wool and natural stones. The roof is removable, the door is fully functional. The house also can be removed from the stone base.

Made from White birch bark, Golden Birch bark, Willow twigs, White Cedar twigs. The roof is made from hand-dyed wool and yarns that have been needle-felted with vintage glass beads topped with an acorn finial. The interior is fully finished with Mulberry paper and is visible thru the latticed Porthole windows. There are TWO separate battery-powered LED lighting strands, one in warm white and the other in colorful hues to give a variety of lighting moods. The house can stand alone from the base which is constructed of Birch ply, hand-dyed needle-felted wool and natural stones from Lake Champlain. The house with the base is approximately 7 x 7 x 7inches tall. The sculpture is for serious collectors and is not a toy. Smaller houses, like this one, are actually more difficult to make and sometimes take just as long to complete as the larger houses. This is the only house I have made in this miniature size that has two separate lighting systems. This house was specially made and raffled off as part of the exhibit to benefit the Sheldon Museum. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/b96f9b12-7ae3-43a0-b1ff-1f0cddda12b8/Adirondack+Faerie+Lodge.jpg Whimsical Wonders - The Adirondack Faerie Lodge: This rustic Fairy house is made from White Birch Bark and branches, a large shelf fungus, White Cedar twigs, Red Pine bark, tree fungus, Red Pine cones, wild grape tendrils, river pebbles, natural Monarch butterfly wings (ethically collected) wool felt, silk florals, with battery-powered LED lighting.

Addison County Entertainment Ephemera, 1860-1920s (Copy) The Sheldon archival collection is particularly rich in entertainment and performance ephemera. One of the collection’s greatest attributes is that it attests to a robust and diverse social life in Vermont towns during the 19th and early 20th centuries. A wide variety of entertainment graced Addison County, bringing moments of comedy, tragedy, and celebration and witnessing political and social change. Audiences enjoyed theatrical performances, musical concerts, vaudeville and minstrel shows, traveling circuses, concerts, events, dances and lectures. Performers came from far away, but just as many were local individuals and groups. From posters, playbills, programs, broadsides, tickets, and other ephemera, a broad range of subjects and historical events emerge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607116318678-TDB1X0FSWKOXK4325GZ5/VIEW_3%252B-1881.001.001.jpg Non-Photographic Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607116347770-B9RCCNAO3X26R1JWRYPW/1979.327.001.jpg Non-Photographic Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1588360196865-VN68QXBHKZIN3VIEE8B1/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-04-08%2Bat%2B8.54.33%2BAM.jpg Non-Photographic Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607116318678-TDB1X0FSWKOXK4325GZ5/VIEW_3%252B-1881.001.001.jpg Non-Photographic Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607116347770-B9RCCNAO3X26R1JWRYPW/1979.327.001.jpg Non-Photographic Collections https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/archives-home daily 0.75 2025-12-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1586273398544-QKPF6IGVKLJ1J5NHM7S3/Eva+Garcelon-Hart+and+Joann+Langrock+work+in+the+Research+Center.+Photo+Brett+Simison.jpg Archives Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1586350492582-RORIJJPDE475DDRG3VAL/Screen+Shot+2020-04-08+at+8.54.33+AM.png Archives Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721569986-J47I9XGHOSKYDUCETIN8/charity+and+sylvia.jpg Archives Home - Bryant/Drake Silhouette and Collection, 1807-1860s The double silhouette of Sylvia Drake (1784-1868) and Charity Bryant (1777-1851) of Weybridge, Vermont, is considered the earliest known image of a same-sex couple in the U.S. The portraits in profile dating from around 1810 are framed in silk and braids of human hair looped in the shape of a heart. Silhouette art was a popular portraiture format in the pre-photography era prior to 1839. The double silhouette is part of the Drake/Bryant voluminous collection of correspondence, poems, diaries, and business records that document their lives and their forty-plus year relationship. The book, Charity & Sylvia: A Same-Sex Marriage in Early America (2014) by Rachel Hope Cleves, was largely based on the Center’s archival collection. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721587971-BELKHXWIC8S5CC8B98SA/ephemera.jpg Archives Home - Addison County Entertainment Ephemera, 1860-1920s The Sheldon archival collection is particularly rich in entertainment and performance ephemera.

The images are considered the earliest-known set of textile machine maker’s workshop drawings in the U.S. Among them is a view of the Boston Manufacturing Co. at Waltham, Mass. from c. 1820, also thought to be one of the earliest views of mills in Waltham. After travelling to other textile mills across New England, Isaac E. Markham returned to Middlebury, where he died of typhus. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721631899-F021KVPM1ZCE5IHKVGYV/chipman+atlas.jpg Archives Home - Manuscripts Maps by Sarah H. Chipman, 1823 A hand-drawn, beautiful miniature atlas, “A Book of Penmanship,” was created in 1823 by Susan H. Chipman (1808-1848), while a student at Miss Page’s School for girls in Middlebury. It is a remarkable example of the influence that a pioneering reformer of female education, Emma Willard, had upon local schooling. Willard introduced geography and astronomy into the girl’s curriculum while teaching in one of the first in the country female seminaries in Middlebury in the early 1800s. Chipman’s booklet contains thirty hand-colored maps accompanied by exquisitely rendered in ornamental calligraphy descriptive passages on Geography, the Solar System, and Climates. Susan H. was a daughter of Daniel Chipman, an early local settler, legislator and author. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721650816-YJD2EFDHW4TVP0VTVXWN/HLS+house+book.jpg Archives Home - "House Book", Henry L. Sheldon's Scrapbook #173, 1876-1901 Henry L. Sheldon compiled over 200 scrapbooks, many focusing on early Middlebury history, its citizens and community development. The highlights among them is scrapbook #173, the “House Book,” that contains a history of every building in the Village of Middlebury compiled by Sheldon in 1876 and updated in 1901. In addition, the scrapbook includes extensive information about the 1891 Middlebury fire, the Weeks family genealogy, birth records in 1896 kept by Dr. Daniel C. Noble, photographs, and more. The building information was updated by the Center’s volunteers as the “Building History Register” project. The updated records are now frequently consulted by Middlebury property owners. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721666467-L7RPGHRBHC1PD2XHZIEQ/crystoleum.jpeg Archives Home - Crystoleum Portrait of Joseph Battell, c. 1890 Crystoleum, or American ivorytype, is a rare photographic technique that was mostly practiced in Europe. This portrait is of Joseph Battell (1839-1915), a local early environmentalist, philanthropist, Morgan horse breeder, and a person behind many of Middlebury’s architectural landmarks. Crystoleum consists of a photograph printed on the inside of a convex glass that is adhered to a bottom piece of paper or glass with a rudimentary painted portrait that aligns with a top one. This technique was an early attempt of introducing color into photography. The portrait was recently identified and restored and is one of a few known portraits of Joseph Battell. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721680941-MTIXOMSQP6OHVNCX3K0D/merrill+sermon.jpg Archives Home - Semicentennial Sermon by Thomas A. Merrill, 1840 The “Semicentennial Sermon Containing a History of Middlebury...,” was delivered by Reverend Thomas A. Merrill in 1840 on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of establishment of the Congregational Church in Middlebury. It is considered one of the earliest sources of information about the history of the town from one who had witnessed much of it. Thomas A. Merrill (1780-1855), a graduate of Dartmouth College, came to Middlebury in 1804 as a tutor at Middlebury College. In 1805 he was ordained and served as pastor at the Middlebury Congregational Church during the turbulent era of the Second Great Awakening, a religious revival, a position he held until 1842. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721698922-R83M45TKHMGV1R34GGP9/image-asset.jpeg Archives Home - Music of the Stewart, Battell, and Swift Families, 1800s-1910s One of the most outstanding components of the Stewart-Swift Research Center’s musical holdings are those belonging to the Stewart, Battell, and Swift families in Middlebury. Together they form an unusual, historically valuable compilation of sheet music and bound music collected over several generations in a single area. Some family members bound their sheet music into volumes, and “The Bloomer Schottisch,” dated 1851, is part of a binder’s volume belonging to Emma Battell. This family music collection tells an important historical story and constitutes a significant resource for scholars of American music, also revealing much about 19th-century culture, particularly that of women, in New England and in the broader U.S. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/archives-collections daily 0.75 2024-01-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1587213353504-UOZTASQV7VM6J5PY0UPI/Dean_5+School+Leicester+children+on+travis+sled+4x5gp+circa+B.jpg Archives: Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1608144954694-9IF03L8W6ZAF8EQ8FIJY/For+MSS+icon+another+crop.jpg Archives: Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117299783-GE6QN1HQDTEQEBHCPBWZ/MAPSection4_1%25252B014.051.001.jpg Archives: Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1608145001440-39VN68ZVSKUBQQZ22VEX/books%2Bon%2Bshelf-cropped.jpg Archives: Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117439013-THB9QPZLPNO49D72MVBR/EPH.jpg Archives: Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117128100-GL4P09Q20OFAFL0V73DS/SCRAPScrapbook%252Bno.%252B131.jpg Archives: Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607712642799-3985U0L3IF1KEAZN2YJN/tape%2Brecorder.jpg Archives: Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117185226-YTABEPRX50W5OI2CLPY2/MUSIC.jpg Archives: Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117543602-I7GA8LCX5DDCIA8YVIXW/Middlebury%2BRegister%2Bpict..jpg Archives: Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117236288-VG0EWWBE3B90C82QYBPT/Por_7%252B%252B-%252BWm%252BJackson%252B%2527Yes%252C%252Bmy%252Bboss%252Bwife...%2527%252C%252Bca.%252B1890.jpg Archives: Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117606975-12JMKRQ4KC84V2D06N95/Research%2Bpapers%2Bfile%2Bpicture.jpg Archives: Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1588360196865-VN68QXBHKZIN3VIEE8B1/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-04-08%2Bat%2B8.54.33%2BAM.jpg Archives: Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1608144954694-9IF03L8W6ZAF8EQ8FIJY/For+MSS+icon+another+crop.jpg Archives: Collections Manuscripts https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117299783-GE6QN1HQDTEQEBHCPBWZ/MAPSection4_1%25252B014.051.001.jpg Archives: Collections Maps https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1608145001440-39VN68ZVSKUBQQZ22VEX/books%2Bon%2Bshelf-cropped.jpg Archives: Collections Books & Pamphlets https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117439013-THB9QPZLPNO49D72MVBR/EPH.jpg Archives: Collections Ephemera https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/00cb61c3-4085-4842-8ddf-0bf94d58f831/istockphoto-1336296886-612x612.jpg Archives: Collections Recorded Talks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117128100-GL4P09Q20OFAFL0V73DS/SCRAPScrapbook%252Bno.%252B131.jpg Archives: Collections Scrapbooks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607712642799-3985U0L3IF1KEAZN2YJN/tape%2Brecorder.jpg Archives: Collections Audio Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117185226-YTABEPRX50W5OI2CLPY2/MUSIC.jpg Archives: Collections Music https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117543602-I7GA8LCX5DDCIA8YVIXW/Middlebury%2BRegister%2Bpict..jpg Archives: Collections Newspapers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117236288-VG0EWWBE3B90C82QYBPT/Por_7%252B%252B-%252BWm%252BJackson%252B%2527Yes%252C%252Bmy%252Bboss%252Bwife...%2527%252C%252Bca.%252B1890.jpg Archives: Collections Visual Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607117606975-12JMKRQ4KC84V2D06N95/Research%2Bpapers%2Bfile%2Bpicture.jpg Archives: Collections Research Papers https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/happy-birthday-henry daily 0.75 2023-11-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/a56c07f9-b9e5-41c1-95d3-a0814bcd6dba/1984.042.001r_MS.JPEG+-+drawing+of+Henry+Sheldon+after+1842+daguerreotype%2C+1875.jpg Happy Birthday Henry!

She was so small, especially compared to her instructor Bob Crystal. I assumed one of my usual positions, down on the ground, to emphasize the size difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303439790-WEDOVFL3IBUI4BIPZVBX/2+Hello+Governor%21.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Hello Governor! After Jim Douglas became Vermont’s Governor in 2003, he still lived in Middlebury because Vermont doesn’t have an official Governor’s residence. When he and his wife Dorothy marched in Middlebury’s 2010 Memorial Day parade, they were hometown favorites. I like this photo because the Governor seems as happy to see the crowd as they do to see him! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617304044994-1G840CTRR0MWHRHR5UK6/3+Water+Sports.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Water Sports Middlebury’s Mary Johnson Children’s Center became a regular stop for me when I was looking for a fun standalone photograph. Here I found two 5-year-old boys, Chris Clark and Sean Martin, playing with balls and a water chute. My shooting position, down on the ground, was beneficial for capturing their excited expressions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303467622-J60QJXKTIQEFA990HB7Z/4+Memorial+Day+March.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Memorial Day March Civil War reenactors march in Orwell’s Memorial Day parade in 2010. The angle of the marchers enabled me to include their faces and the faces of the viewers on the side of the road. I am happy to include this photo as I rarely got to the Orwell parade due to my very busy Memorial Day weekend schedule. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303478403-JUSSP4BRDDJSGEMD9DLH/5+Water+Commute.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Water Commute Mike Sweeney, who drove the Addison Independent delivery van, lived across the lake in New York in 2009 when the Champlain Bridge was deemed unsafe and was closed. Before the state provided ferry service at the site, Mike got creative and used a small rowboat to commute to and from work. I squeezed into his tiny boat one afternoon to get his portrait. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303474907-2W6QZ5RJ61UXI7H86JSM/6+Retired.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Retired Albert Gatow retired from the Waltham Selectboard in 2003, and he was interviewed in his home in anticipation of the solemn occasion.

It’s such a tender moment, one similarly displayed by dozens of other young farmers at Field Days, that I was very pleased to capture it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303509121-79EK70AUX9WJA2IZ3F18/11+Roger+Layne.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Roger Layn At Field Days in 2010, a new antique farm equipment building was dedicated to farmer Roger Layn. I arranged to meet him at the building, and it only took a few moments for him to present to me his wonderfully stoic, yet mischievous, gaze. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303513421-3RFWLWCBCKVTPSCXTVQL/12+A+Day+at+the+Fair.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - A Day at the Fair For years, my paper’s advertising director had pleaded that I capture a single image that showed both the agricultural side and the fun side of Field Days. I finally found the shot in 2004 when I spotted two girls walking their calf past the show arena with the Midway’s Ferris wheel rising in the background. They walked along at just the right moment as I waited with this composition in my viewfinder. My advertising director was pleased! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303513341-AENXAXHGXWXPJJQKWH9K/13+Ruth+Stone.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Ruth Stone Ruth Stone was an author and poet living in Addison County. In the winter of 2002 when I arrived to photograph her, she was sitting with her feet over a heat vent hoping to get warm. Wanting a natural moment, I asked her to stay where she was, and I snapped away. To me, the humanness of the moment demanded black and white, so I converted the original color file. The original had too many light sources to provide a good color balance, and black and white also put more emphasis on Stone’s resting face. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303518784-XYTNJRUJFPPFE1ABZS4C/14+Man+Overboard.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Man Overboard One day in August of 2003, after looking many times, I finally spotted a young man jumping off the rock above the pool below Bartlett Falls in Bristol. He was jumping from the outcrop seen in the lower right of the photograph, and the few images I got did not really excite me as I viewed them on the back of the camera. Then I heard a voice to my left call out, “Hey Trent!” I turned and saw Skylar Atkins, who I had known from his days as a student athlete at Mount Abraham, standing on a long flat rock in the middle of the river above the falls. “You got fast film in that camera?” he asked. Not wanting to explain the details of shooting digitally, I simply said, “Sure.” “Get ready,” he said, and then he took a few steps back on the rock. I raised my camera, and he took a running start and then dove out over the falls and into the pool below. I took several shots and just hoped they were in focus. After seeing that they were, I noticed the group of three kids watching in the upper right corner. I think they, along with Skylar’s perfect form, really make the photograph. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303532809-OQ5IB7132R63FB4KOL3A/15+Full+Attention.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Full Attention In January of 2013 Middlebury College students presented their work with Lego robots to a large group of kids and adults in Bicentennial Hall. The Science Center has an enormous glass wall that provides great light. I got down to table level to better include a spectator and a robot in the same composition, and I fired away. 5-year-old Juliette Hunsdorfer provided the face of wonderment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303535913-34PMEVPFJWNWR0E2HRED/16+Drivers+on+Display.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Drivers on Display For safety reasons and because of the standing room only crowd, I was always confined to the small announcer’s box at the Demolition Derby at Field Days every year. At the 2009 event, I leaned out the open window of the box and saw a group of drivers awaiting their turn to kick up some mud and cause some destruction on the track. I liked the expressive anticipation of this group. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617304330832-7CARVBG2UW09UDUK7BMS/17+Future+Farmer+of+America.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Future Farmer of America Driving through New Haven in April of 2004 I spotted 2-year-old Palmer Guthrie on his toy tractor. I quickly turned the car around, and thankfully found his mother outside with him. She allowed me to take some photographs, so I laid down on the ground, my frequent position for my work, and snapped away. This Future Farmer of America was very serious about his play. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303551295-OZ53ZSIF58HC9QAYIWZJ/18+The+Music+Woman.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - The Music Woman I'm a big fan of musical theater. In 2009, when I found out Town Hall Theater Executive Director Doug Anderson was about to stage one of my favorite shows, The Music Man, I asked him if I could document the production. I attended at least one rehearsal a week and produced many interesting and fun photographs (and met my future wife). I especially liked shooting in the rehearsal studio with its wall of mirrors which allowed me to get both sides of a scene. Here, Music Director Lindi Bortney works with the barbershop quartet of Glenn Andres, Frank Wright, Jeff Wulfman, and Christopher Diehl-Noble. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617304375024-BAVAWBQB09ZQDT2Q2SKD/image-asset.jpeg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Lunch Hour I was at Ferrisburgh Central School in October of 2003 doing a story on the school’s hot lunch program when I turned away from the kitchen and looked across the gymnasium/cafeteria. Bright sunlight was streaming in, and it beautifully illuminated angelic kindergartner Emily LaLumiere as she went through her lunch and laughed with her friends. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303573857-BDX9UWU04S3MMI4QTL4M/20+From+Shine+to+Wine.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - From Shine to Wine At New Haven’s Lincoln Peak Winery one day in September of 2010, I was lucky enough to catch Erich Marn cleaning out a fermenting tank. I used a ladder to look down on his work. The polished interior of the tank reflected his face in multiple ways and made an image of an ordinary, everyday chore into something more interesting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617304400060-F5EEANZ2NJRG4X0DB9ML/21+Watching+Ewe.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Watching Ewe Sheep have faces too, and they can even be very expressive. Here, a group of sheep on the Thompson/Duclos farm in Weybridge eye me suspiciously as I poke through some shrubs to get a shot of them and their sprawling barn which was a great photographic subject in itself. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303565036-ZIQFEHTE5QHEQTRK8075/22+Bridge+Workers.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Opening Day New York and Vermont held an opening ceremony for the new Champlain Bridge in November of 2011. For the ceremony I was corralled in a small space on the bleachers with other members of the press. There wasn't much to do but wait for the Governor and other dignitaries to take the stage and make remarks. I looked up and saw a group of Vermont construction workers walking across the bridge heading to the ceremony. I bumped elbows with other photographers as I quickly raised my camera and took one of my favorite photos of that year. The strong lines of the handsome bridge along with the determined looks from the workers make this image stand out. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303583553-0EP136P4KX4E9ERFKYOH/23+Beeman+Welcome.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - Beeman Welcome Over the years I attended several naturalization ceremonies hosted in the Beeman Elementary School gymnasium. In 2014 a group of schoolkids stood and sang during the ceremony to welcome the new citizens. The black curtain and the American flag made a perfect backdrop for these fresh-faced kids caught in a patriotic moment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303586239-FPBWEZWNKQZFJ67Z23HL/24+The+Porker+Heels.jpg Faces of Addison County: A Trent Campbell Retrospective - The Porker Heels The Platt Memorial Library in Shoreham was planning a summer of 2011 “Kiss a Pig” Fundraiser. In February they selected the piglet that would become the lucky pig that would get kissed. Organizer Kathleen Hescock took the piglet (Runty the Porker) out for a walk after a snowstorm. I assumed my frequent position on the ground so I could get both Hescock and the piglet's face in the same shot. Fortunately, Hescock and Runty expressed the levity of the moment. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/work-at-the-sheldon daily 0.75 2025-08-04 https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/collecting-ethics daily 0.75 2022-07-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/fbce8650-a5ee-4eb6-9b33-a28655ed4dac/Mummy+Gravestone.jpg Collecting Ethics - Egyptian Mummy at the Sheldon Museum The gravestone of Amun Her Khepeshef. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/0e03e0b6-db24-49f3-b83f-8c7e24f13fbc/Napoleon.jpg Collecting Ethics - Napoleon Bonaparte’s Relics The “loaned” vial of Napoleon’s hair https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/0ef98a15-f0b5-42b6-9d14-b365e6d83ecc/Petrified+Indian+Boy-cropped.jpg Collecting Ethics - “Petrified Indian Boy” The “Petrified Indian Boy” pictured on a postcard, c. 1920s https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/fbce8650-a5ee-4eb6-9b33-a28655ed4dac/Mummy+Gravestone.jpg Collecting Ethics - Egyptian Mummy at the Sheldon Museum The gravestone of Amun Her Khepeshef. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/0e03e0b6-db24-49f3-b83f-8c7e24f13fbc/Napoleon.jpg Collecting Ethics - Napoleon Bonaparte’s Relics The “loaned” vial of Napoleon’s hair https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/0ef98a15-f0b5-42b6-9d14-b365e6d83ecc/Petrified+Indian+Boy-cropped.jpg Collecting Ethics - “Petrified Indian Boy” The “Petrified Indian Boy” pictured on a postcard, c. 1920s https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/pedaling-through-history daily 0.75 2022-08-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1659033845632-9CYQ8XT5ZSYFFW4BUQKM/StearnsSerpentine+style+velocipede%2C+1868.+Collection+of+Glenn+Eames.jpg Pedaling Through History - Serpentine style velocipede June/July 1868 Calvin Witty Brooklyn, NY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1659033846709-D8XFWRMNZT24GM5G5FEN/Velocipede.jpg+.jpg Pedaling Through History - Velocipede, unknown model ca. 1870-73 Unknown origin Made by blacksmith or machinist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1659032530556-1DK25OXBP84LBU469YVK/Converted+Ariel+.jpg Pedaling Through History - "Converted Ariel” ca. 1871/1872 Smith, Starley, and Company Coventry, England https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1659032531838-E94WU6B8QB25NMY3T2PB/Meyer+velocipede+.jpg Pedaling Through History - Transitional velocipede bicycle ca. 1872 Eugene Meyer Paris, France https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1659033845052-O0CGWIK1MNTEPW0VWBZR/Special+Pony+Star+ca.+1887.+Collection+of+Glenn+Eames..jpg Pedaling Through History - Special Pony Star bicycle ca. 1888 H.B.

This case features just a few of the many canes in his collection, whose extensive scope is suggested by a numbered inventory of 35 canes, drafted around 1900. Each cane or walking stick also bears a small paper label printed with a number that corresponds to its provenance, its history and origins. The first two canes on the left were constructed by Henry Sheldon and his friend Charles Bruya from fragments of sites of historical interest, sometimes referred to as “relics” (for more on Henry’s practice of relic-collecting, see the case in the Ladies’ Bedroom across the hall). Rather than turning the wood into a smooth cylinder with the help of a lathe, Sheldon often carved or planed his canes into an octagonal shape that tapered to a narrower tip. The left-most cane (A) is derived from one of the oak timbers that had supported the wooden bridge that crossed Otter Creek and connected downtown Middlebury’s Main Street before succumbing to fire in 1891, when it was replaced by a stone bridge; a tiny inscription “Beacon Dam Co. Goodyears Patent 1851” stamped on its brass finial indicates that its handle has been adapted from a powder flask, alluding to another one of Sheldon’s favorite hobbies: target shooting. Next to this is an ivory-handled cane (B). While we don’t know the story of its handle’s elaborate carving, we do know that the wood was taken from the cupola of Middlebury’s original courthouse, built in 1796. Cane #7 (C, third from left) is topped by the angular carving of a man’s features. Sheldon’s accession log entry hints at the adventures it must have witnessed: “A cane with human features, said to be very old, and travelled much.” It’s unclear how Sheldon’s friend and former business partner William Mulchahey acquired the cane or why he decided to donate it to the Museum in 1884, but Sheldon’s inventory of canes offers a few more tantalizing details: “Head like man’s face, owned by Capt. Sargent of Mass., has been around the world and to China, several times, before 1830.” This is a far cry from the other cane with a human head featured in the case (E), a mass-produced cane with a cast metal bust representing U.S. President Ulysses S. Grant (#12). Although Sheldon asserted that he purchased this cane at Grant’s funeral, his ledger indicated its purchase in March of 1885; Grant died in July of that year and was interred in New York’s Riverside Park on August 8, 1885. The cane was likely created either as election paraphernalia for Grant’s Presidential campaigns of 1868 and 1872, or as a memento after his death in the summer of 1885 (#12). The rough-hewn cane in the middle of the case (D, #17) is another “relic,” constructed from a tree that grew at the site of the American Civil War’s Battle of the Wilderness. In only a few days (May 5-7, 1864), nearly 5,000 soldiers died in this bloody conflict that raged in dense wooded areas of Virginia near Spotsylvania County. In the following decades, the battlefield became renowned for the visceral evidence of warfare its landscape offered, with blasted trees and human remains testifying to the brutality of the fight. The two right-most canes (F & G) are souvenirs. Cane #16 (F), with its dark sheen and thorny protrusions, is another well-traveled walking stick; Sheldon’s label describes it as a “Full-Blooded Irish Cane from Queenstown- Presented by Alson B. Colby 1889” and “Bought by him on his return from South America in 1888-1889.” Indeed, the cane’s appearance is similar to shillelaghs crafted from Irish blackthorn and marketed as traditional souvenirs of Ireland. Sheldon’s friend Alson B. Colby, a native of Lincoln, VT, had established a “first-class restaurant” in downtown Middlebury in the 1870s, offering “confectionery, fruit, and pastry,” as well as “ice cream and oysters, in their season” (Middlebury Undergraduate, Feb. 1878). While research has yet to reveal his connection to Ireland, Colby is known to have traveled to South America in the hopes of trading livestock and horses in 1887-1888; writing from Buenos Aires in July of 1888, he promised Sheldon “I will try and bring you all something curious also [for] the Museum.” The port of Cobh (known as Queenstown from 1849-1920), along Ireland’s south coast of County Cork, might have been the last overseas port of Colby’s circuitous return trip to the United States. The fanciful curves of the twig cane at the right end of the case (G) evoke the tumbling waters of its site of origin: Ausable Chasm, a popular tourist destination in the Adirondacks. Sheldon visited the site in August of 1890, a few days after his 69th birthday. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/2d8123ea-a249-4071-90fb-06136d46f44e/P1220160.jpg Canes Canes and walking sticks were one of Henry Sheldon’s primary collecting passions—they were among the first objects he acquired for the museum, and he even crafted several canes himself.

Brooks Jr., collector Clyde Angel, artist Welded found steel The welded found steel sculpture titled "Green Man" by Clyde Angel, who was possibly from Iowa, was sculpted circa 1994. While in graduate school at NYU and the Museum of American Folk Art, I purchased the sculpture at the American Primitive Gallery, owned by Aarne Anton, 594 Broadway, New York, NY, and transported the sculpture by subway to my apartment on the Hudson River in Battery Park City. At the time of my purchase, Clyde Angel was thought to be a self-taught outsider artist from Iowa, whose work was first sold by dealers in Iowa and Chicago. Later investigation suggests that the real artist was Vernon “Skip” Willits Jr., an Iowa firefighter and metal sculptor. Nevertheless, whether the mysterious Clyde Angel or the probable Skip Willits is the sculptor, my enthusiasm and fondness for "Green Man" remain. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597642555-A0QATZ4MT8J7GXIPERST/IMG_0219.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Self Portrait, 1960 Eva Garcelon-Hart, collector Władysław Brzosko (1912-2011), artist Oil on canvas I met Władysław Brzosko in 2006 in his cramped apartment stuffed with crates of paintings on Riverside Drive in New York City when I was asked to help to organize his artwork. Brzosko was born in Chita, Siberia, to Ukrainian and Polish parents. He escaped the turbulence of the Russian Revolution, spent WWII in Poland, and lived the rest of his life in the US. Although his work largely consists of landscapes of the Hudson and East Rivers, he most valued his Memories from the Warsaw Ghetto, a series of four large canvases depicting the doomed April 1943 Jewish uprising to which he was an eyewitness. Deeply troubled by his memories, he spent a decade after coming to the US painting the series. The four canvases, along with preparatory sketches, were exhibited at Middlebury College’s Johnson Gallery in 2008. Brzosko’s 1960 self-portrait was gifted to me by his widow. It conveys an indominable spirit of an artist who followed his convictions despite the lack of commercial success. I’m not sure what happened to the hundreds of his paintings after he and his wife passed, but his pride remained with him until the end of his life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597648704-UCXPE65WXK7RT4ZO3LW9/IMG_0220.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Jewish New Year’s Card, 1947 Rebekah Irwin, collector Unidentified itinerant photographer Photographic card on paper I am a collector of old photographs, of my own family and of total strangers. Photographic cards like this one were manufactured in refugee camps for Jewish survivors of the Nazi Holocaust. This card depicts my grandparents, Eta and Max Lakric. The Yiddish caption reads: “May you be inscribed for a good year,” a common greeting during Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. Eta's family, including her parents and four brothers, were massacred near Horochów, Poland (now in northwestern Ukraine). Max's family, including his parents, six siblings, wife, and child, were murdered in a mass shooting of Jews in Volodymyr, Soviet Russia (also now in Ukraine). Max and Eta married after the war and lived for the next several years in a refugee camp. Two of their children were born there, including my mother, who gave this card to me. It usually hangs in my home in Middlebury, embodying all of the richness of historic photography: it captures a brief moment in time, but contains multitudes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597649721-67RPOC8BYKQ586WCL5VE/IMG_0221+%281%29.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Painted Chest of Drawers, 1989 Self Portrait, Mose T, 1989 Mary Ward Manley, collector Mose T, artist Wood, paint Mose Tolliver (1920?-2006) was born to sharecroppers near Montgomery, Alabama. In the late 1960s, he was severely injured while working in a furniture factory when a load of marble crushed his legs. After the accident he took up painting, and although the furniture store owner offered to pay for lessons, he declined saying he wanted to create his own style. Today Mose T is one of the most highly-regarded American self-taught artists. I began collecting paintings by Mose T in 1980, soon after I moved to Montgomery, Alabama, and continued to collect his work for 20 years. His house in Montgomery was full of his paintings and anyone could stop by, make a purchase, and visit with Mose, who sat on his bed and painted. Mose painted the drawers of this dresser for me when I was expecting my second child. Collecting art by artists I know lends such a special connection to the work and the stories last a lifetime. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597658991-9K1N54KOLPG3U8KDA1NC/IMG_0222.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Arabic Lithograph, 1997 Sarah Rogers, collector Mona Saudi, artist Silkscreen lithograph Mona Saudi was the first artist in the Arab world I interviewed for a publication and we became lifelong friends. When I purchase a lithograph from the series for a friend, she gave me one as well. It has Arabic calligraphy of a poem by Syrian writer Adonis along with one of Mona's sculptural drawings. She used ink and diluted Arabic coffee instead of watercolors. It is not only a beautiful print that combines calligraphy and modernist abstract form, but also rare to see work by an artist from the Arab world in Vermont. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597663637-VG40EXUR3KMUOA5VY1W8/IMG_0223.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Abenaki Thimble Basket, late 19th – early 20th C. Wendy Butler, collector Sweetgrass The basket belonged to my great-grandmother, Blanche Fitts of New Haven. The basket sparked my interest and I've collected many more over the years. My complete collection is near 60 baskets. I wanted to share this object to honor the Abenaki people and my long family history in the area. Visitors to the exhibit may have similar basketry in their collections and not be familiar with the history around sweetgrass "fancy baskets." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597666168-A1VSY95MN69SBU4GET7A/IMG_0224.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Antique Sewing Machine, 1915 Louise Prescott, collector Singer Manufacturing Co., Scotland, manufacturer Cast iron machine in a wood case Quilters and vintage sewing machine collectors often name their machines. This one is "Beatrix." I've been sewing since I was little. I got my own (vintage) machine when I was in high school. I took up an interest in quilting a few years ago, then started collecting old sewing machines. I worked in corporate IT for years, but have no use for modern sewing machines with plastic parts and computer circuitry. The old Singer machines were beautifully engineered. I have about 20 vintage and antique Singer machines, several over 100 years old that still sew beautifully. I also have about 30 vintage and antique toy sewing machines, many of which were made in post-WWII Germany for the export market as part of an effort to restart the German economy. It's really interesting to see how the evolution of the sewing machine wove in and out of our cultural history. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597673010-WIKCCW6DWFO7VB9EZ940/IMG_0225.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Signed Letter from Ronald Reagan, 1966 Richard Saunders, collector Ronald Reagan, author Paper A hand-written and signed letter from Ronald Reagan sent to me July 17, 1966, when I was a teenager collecting autographs and he campaigned (successfully) to become Governor of California. As a child I collected everything: insects and butterflies, antique glass marbles, baseball cards, World War I posters, books & autographs, stamps, coins, American railroad lanterns, etc. (you get the idea). My college dorm room was furnished with antiques bought at local shops, which both my friends and my wife (we got engaged in college) found endlessly amusing. So, eventually becoming a museum curator and for the past three decades a museum director was a logical extension of such interest. I think most collectors are born––not made––and their passion never ends. People fascinated by objects are always looking at them, hoping to discover some new detail they have not seen before. It is endlessly rewarding. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656683956480-QFL00PJH7HC3PZN275S1/IMG_0226.jpg Addison County Collects Exhibit Antique Children’s Sewing Machine, early 1900s Pam Pezzulo, collector Carl Sieper Factory, Gevelsberg, Germany Metal My father-in-law was an upholsterer by trade. He began collecting child sewing machines at flea markets, etc. in the 1960s and 1970s. He gifted me my first machine with the Little Red Riding Hood decal. Upon his death in 1980, several more were added to my collection. I began collecting after 2000. I have been able to acquire the Snow White, Cinderella, and Hansel and Gretel (loaned for this exhibit.) Recently, my brother-in-law gave me a child’s treadle sewing machine, which has the most value. I have several antique dolls displayed with the machines. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656687654837-D2QWNZ417QTJ7A7KTJ45/IMG_0226.jpg Addison County Collects Exhibit Uncle Sam Mechanical Bank, 1886 Rod Michaud, collector Shepard Hardware Co, Buffalo NY Iron, paint I collect mechanical banks and toys and am part of the Mechanical Bank Collectors of America. I come from Connecticut, and most of these banks were made there. They were all painted by women. I think they got a nickel per bank, and if they made a mistake their pay was docked. The women would find places all over the factory to hide the mispainted banks. The Uncle Sam bank is one of the most well-known mechanical banks of all time. It represents America, more than anything else. The Shepard Hardware Co. stopped making these banks in 1892, after about ten years of production. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656687733184-FHVAS7C4H1CV09AOR1DB/IMG_0227.jpg Addison County Collects Exhibit Framed Buttons Wallace Payne Family, collector Bridport Historical Society Buttons with Wooden & Cardboard Frame The Payne family collection of buttons, arranged by Wallace Payne.

I took over management in 1965, and until my retirement in 2020 I saved samples of many of the toy pianos that we manufactured. In the 1940s Jaymar Specialty Co. of Brooklyn, NY had a small assembly plant in the Marble Works in Middlebury. When Jaymar decided to enter the toy piano market, Brown Novelty Co. of East Middlebury, already a supplier of wood parts to Jaymar, was selected to supply the parts for the new line of toy pianos. All the cabinet parts, even the piano keys, were manufactured and painted in East Middlebury and shipped in bulk to Brooklyn where they were assembled, packaged, and distributed nationally. The business relationship between Jaymar and Brown Novelty lasted more than fifty years and resulted in the production of several million toy pianos. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656684105820-JDG9U5PIDQ4KKQYHCUD9/IMG_0229.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Fabric Mask from Ecuador, 1951 Sarah Ashe, collector Fabric I acquired this mask when I served in the Peace Corps in Ecuador in the mid-1960s. This is one of three similar masks I purchased and they have lived with me since 1969 and influenced my own art making. I love it and it has inspired me to make art with fabric and stitchery. I never saw them used but understand they were worn in the Festival/parade of St. Peter and St. Paul in Latacunga, Ecuador. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597693686-AGUMINWG8NSY7KPGEJA4/IMG_0230.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Mongolian traditional clothing, 1995-2003 Sas Carey, collector Local artisans, Mongolia Fabric, sheepskin, silver buttons This traditional outfit was handmade in Mongolia by various people. The hat is a man’s hat, worn especially by wrestlers. The jacket is traditionally worn by men, and the boots are designed with the toe pointing up so that the soil of the steppes is not disturbed when walked upon. The dress is a woman’s deel, although this clothing design is worn by both men and women using different materials and sashes. The design of the deel is very convenient for nomadic life. The way it is doubled in front allows a horse rider’s legs to be covered. It can be a ground cover for lying down and a blanket for cover at night. The top front creates a big pocket over the sash for food, binoculars, baby animals, and even small babies. My mission in life is to support and preserve traditional Mongolian nomadic life. I am happy to share this costume with others in our town. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597699293-HZWZBE68GFO79L36K6UN/IMG_0231.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit 1766 Charleville Flintlock Musket (Reproduction) Bernie Noble, Collector Walnut stock, steel barrel My interest in American history, particularly Revolutionary and Civil War History, led me to become an historical reenactor of the Whitcomb’s Rangers. Through reenacting over the past 40 years, I have collected reproduction 18th-century clothing and equipment including this flintlock musket. When France decided to support the Americans in their revolution against Britain after Burgoyne’s surrender at Saratoga, they sold thousands of these surplus muskets to the Americans for the equivalent of $7 apiece. With French military aid like this, Washington won the War for Independence. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597708270-1T7QOMS4JZ0E71SZA1V2/IMG_0232.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Horseshoe, 1850-1950 Bob Hooker, collector Grandfather/Great-Grandfather, blacksmiths My grandfather and his father were blacksmiths in Pittsford. About 1920 they started renting a former wheelwright shop because it was bigger than their shop. If there was ever anything that was heavy and needed to be thrown out my Grandfather use to say "throw it down over the bank. It will help hold the bank in place next spring." My late husband, Greg Sharrow, and I both loved to garden so when we moved in we proceeded to fill every available inch of the small village plot with decorative shrubs, perennials, grapes, and vegetables. The first two years, everywhere we dug we found horseshoes and other iron objects. Iron Slag, late 1800s Bruce Yelton, collector East Middlebury Iron Works, maker Iron The East Middlebury Iron Works was built by George Chapman in 1831. At its peak, the mill produced three tons of “slab” iron per day, earning East Middlebury the nickname of “Slab City”. When it closed in 1887, this furnace was the last operating iron works in Vermont. The East Middlebury Historical Society is erecting a historical marker and making efforts in preserving the site. Central African Croisettes, late 19th- early 20th C. Pieter Broucke, collector Artist unknown, Katanga, Democratic Republic of the Congo Copper ingots Cross-like ingots of copper were used as money in copper-rich Katanga (Southeast Congo) in Central Africa and all along the east coast of the continent well into the early 20th century. The value of the “money” is in the value of the material. I got intrigued by them because their shape seems to have been derived from ingots in the shape of stretched animal hides found in the ancient Mediterranean. But there is probably no connection. I acquired these in Belgium about a decade ago. While probably old, since they are basically "money," there is no provenance issue. These objects were never part of the archaeological record and circulated widely and across (modern) borders. Interestingly, their value went up in correlation with the distance from where they were made. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597708732-BTVFZCHJ8EU4640MV6UB/IMG_0233.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Sextant in its Box, mid-1900s Ed McGuire, collector Brass frame, glass lenses in the telescopes and platinum insert on the limb inscribed with angles After graduating from the US Coast Guard Academy in 1964 my uncle, Warren Dunkerly, found this sextant and gave it to me. Uncle Warren had served in minesweepers during WWII and wanted me to have it. I used it briefly while assigned as the navigator aboard the CG Cutter TANEY in 1966-67. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597717713-LL9ZPA66MXKKQGJRQ5QU/IMG_0234.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Photograph of Rose Boise, 1905-10 David and Judith Doria, collectors Unknown traveling photographer Photograph, wooden frame A traveling photographer saw Rose, my husband’s grandmother, and admired her. He asked if he could photograph her and this is the framed picture he took. The paper on the back of her picture was falling off and under it was a backing for her picture. When I turned the backing around there was a picture of a baby/toddler's face that was crossed out. We don't know if the photographer framed this and it was one of his photographs or if someone in the family did it and used an old picture they had. I thought it was interesting to have a photograph of someone in our family here in Middlebury from a traveling photographer so long ago. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597715506-1212N8U220VRLVLUR2VF/IMG_0235.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Egala Seated Figure, early 20th C. Chris Murray, collector Artist unknown, Africa Wood, beads I purchased in the object in 1986 from a local African art dealer when my family was living in Niamey, Niger. It is one of my favorite African sculptures in my small collection. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597723554-9HKRU12QZIHZJQ27A52Z/IMG_0236.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit New Guinean Spirit Mask Vivian & Fritz Branschofsky, collectors Villagers along the Sepik River Wood My husband and I were canoeing on the Sepik River in Papua New Guinea and bought it from a village we visited. The villagers were amused that we spent good money on something that termites would destroy in short order (in their experience). Spirit masks are worn by men in Papua New Guinea for religious and ceremonial occasions or displayed in spirit houses. The masks are worn to transform the wearer into a manifestation of the spirit the mask represents. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597729778-N0OI5I1JYTAQZSAO2OL5/IMG_0237.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Ngoni, date unknown Rick Ceballos, collector Artist unknown, West Africa Wood, goatskin I collect banjos and have a few proto-banjos from Africa. This Ngoni would probably be considered a cousin to the banjo and is interesting both in form and function. The Ngoni is an instrument played by the griots (bards/storytellers) of West Africa. They were the keepers of the musical traditions of their cultures. These traditions were passed down through griot families from generation to generation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597731316-I928JRLRVRX8KKE94K3R/IMG_0238.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit First Issue of Ms. Magazine, July 1972 Susanna Weller, collector Paper with Wooden & Glass Frame My mother subscribed to Ms. Magazine and this issue was mailed to our home when she was pregnant with me. The cover has a picture of Wonder Woman and says, "Wonder Woman for President." Articles listed on the cover include, "Money for housework" and "Body Hair: The Last Frontier." Almost 50 years later it is bittersweet to look at the cover to see how much still resonates, and how much has and has not been accomplished. This first issue magazine is one of the coolest things I own. And every time I focus on it, I am reminded of my mother's feminist ideals and personal strength. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597736368-HVU5K93XQYEEKST1965X/IMG_0239.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Palette-Able, ca. 1937 Ellery Foutch, collector Gil Elvgren, artist; Louis F. Dow, publisher Color print My collection of “Painting Pin-Ups” comes out of an interest in how artists have been represented in popular media, whether in profiles of practicing artists in outlets like LIFE magazine, or in fictional representations (for example, Julianne Moore’s character in The Big Lebowski). About ten years ago, I came across a series of “mutoscope” cards—postcard-size pictures distributed by vending machines that featured scantily-clad pin-ups. One card in particular caught my eye: a young woman wearing a beret, holding an easel and paintbrush, the stereotypical attributes of an artist. I’ve been surprised to find dozens and dozens of examples of pin-ups in the act of painting. While pin-up artists were undoubtedly motivated to sexualize almost any scenario, this repeated motif of the female painter—often depicted by male artists—might offer a window into attitudes about the art world, female creativity, and practices of looking and being seen. In an era in which few female artists were publicly visible or included in the art historical canon, maybe Elvgren’s rendering of such a figure did indeed make the idea of a woman who paints “palette-able.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597738900-LNS1H7QAK62ZA7ECMPZO/IMG_0240.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Lady’s Head Vase, 1958 Lucinda Cockrell, collector National Potteries Co., manufacturer Porcelain This head vase was manufactured by NAPCO in Japan and imported by the National Potteries Co. Cleveland, Ohio for sale. It was given to me by my mother. I have always had the collector bug and a fetish for vases. My grandmother from Alabama had one of these lady’s head vases and as a child in the 1960s, I loved looking at the pretty lady with pearl earrings and necklace. Originally made to hold florists’ flower arrangements, these ceramic head vases became popular in the 1950s and 60s, some having realistic facial features, hats, pearl jewelry, and some with painted nails delicately framing one side of the face. Marilyn Monroe, Lucille Ball, and Jackie O. all had head vases modeled after their likeness. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597743160-6NNL7BIN37XLO4SBCZG8/IMG_0241.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Diary, 1892 Emily Rossheim and Stuart Hamilton, collectors Charlotte Bump Kelley, author Paper with leather cover The daily entries are often accountings of the day’s work. But sprinkled among the routines are special events and expressions of personal feeling which I received as small treasures when I came upon them. Life in rural Vermont in 1892 was very different from life in rural Vermont today. But, more than once, I found myself smiling over descriptions of things that seem never to change. It’s hard to explain why reading the diary of a stranger who wrote about her life 130 years ago is so affecting. To me, it felt like a privilege that went beyond my interest in having a glimpse into the past. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597751605-VNU6YO3V3HRW2ADYW2XA/IMG_0243.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Antique Tea Ball, 1940 Private Collection Webster Company Sterling silver, engraved I started collecting tea balls via eBay after my son died of cancer in 2009. His unexpected death made me more aware of my own. I thought that when I die, I would like my friends to have a tea party in my honor! And at the end of the party, each guest could choose a tea ball to keep. So basically, I have been collecting tea balls as party favors for my own end-of-life celebration! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597752360-6KDBQMV2WZCV7UWFXVNE/IMG_0244.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Vintage Fiesta Dinnerware, mid-1900s Bruce Burgess, Collector Frederick Rhead, Designer & Homer Laughlin Company, manufacturer I remember my mother using Fiestaware when I was growing up. As an adult, I began to buy pieces for my own use, and the hunt for additional pieces became a passion. These three pieces are a small sample of more than 450 pieces in my collection. Fiestaware is still available today. However, my collection focuses on the original six colors made: red, yellow, cobalt blue, green, ivory and turquoise. It is significant to note that Fiesta is one of the first products, if not the first, to use focus groups during the design process. Newer versions of Fiesta feature other colors and designs that do not duplicate the original Fiestaware, a consideration appreciated by collectors today. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597756976-I858KYK2I14BK3LS7H0J/IMG_0245.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Whale Bone, date unknown Phyllis Demong Family, collector Vertebra of a whale This unusual find washed up on the beach in Orleans, Massachusetts, where Phyllis’s love of whales inspired her to pick it up. Phyllis spent more than half of her year on Cape Cod, wandering the beaches and finding treasures. Whale spouts were visible on the ocean’s surface from her house, and she made many paintings of whales throughout the years. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597757700-WWX7XXVY7VL3APUE3KKB/IMG_0246.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Church, Trees, and Singers Carvings, circa 2000 Anne LaFiandra, collector Artist unknown, Seiffen, Germany Wood This octagonal church is a beloved folk art motif of the actual church in Seiffen, the heart of the Erzgebirge (Ore Mountains) near the Czech border in Saxony, Germany (formerly the German Democratic Republic). The Grimm tale of Snow White may have origins in this region because the dwarfs (possibly children) were miners. After the lodes were mined, the townsfolk turned to woodworking to support themselves. Nutcrackers are probably the most familiar objects today, but the many workshops are family-owned over generations and produce a wide variety of fine wooden folk art. My collection has well over 25 objects. The church carving was given to me in 1998 by the German principal of a school in Erfurt, with which my school had an exchange. My host in Weimar actually grew up in Saxony and took me to Seiffen, a highlight because I could not go there when I lived and studied in Germany in the ‘70s. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597764313-PXQFW7E0I8Y021GZXYE4/IMG_0247.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Daguerreotype Case with Homeopathic Medicine Linda Kelton, Family Collection Metal daguerreotype case, glass bottles, medicines These medicine bottles were used by my great-grandmother’s brother Rodman Clark Green, a practicing homeopathic physician in Cornwall, VT. He lived from 1833-1866 and graduated from Homeopathic Medical College in Cleveland, Ohio in 1858. Growing up I was always fascinated by this case of tiny bottles with meds inside. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597764428-UQUZMNYPIU7BZQE5AM7N/IMG_0248.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Blue Heaven Plate, 1965 Sarah S. Fox, collector Royal China, Sebring, Ohio China I found my first set of four plates at the Addison County Community Action Group's thrift store 15 years ago and fell in love. I've been hunting down the pattern (in blue and the harder-to-find green version) since then. Most of my finds have been "in the wild" in thrift stores and estate sales. The pattern is beautiful and each piece works so nicely with the rest. They are also incredibly hardy. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656597768689-9G5BIL4AKLU2S4NSQG1W/IMG_0249.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Ceramic Mug, 2018 Ethan Mitchell, collector Brenna McBroom, artist Porcelain This mug was made by Brenna McBroom at my request, on a device I built to resolve a debate over whether "reverse throwing" a pot (by spinning the potter around a stationary piece of clay) was mechanically identical to the regular method. Apparently it is. Everyone has an intuitive understanding of the physics of this, but no one agrees. I have not heard any other descriptions of reverse throwing, so this is most likely a one-of-a-kind piece. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1656685852762-98HVCC4S8Y09LE2ODEYY/IMG_0242.jpeg Addison County Collects Exhibit Ballet Dancer, 2022 Diane Bigelow, collector & artist Driftwood & shells from Ocracoke Island Beaches, NC I am a collector of sticks, stones, shells, and bones.

Plaster of Paris, ca. 1888 “This plaster of Paris pig was the only toy my father, Howard J. Wright of Weybridge, ever received at Christmas. His parents, Crucy & George H. Wright of Weybridge, believed Christmas was strictly a religious holiday and gifts of toys were inappropriate. The children received nuts and perhaps an orange in their stockings hung on Christmas Eve. My father told the story of his delight at this unusual break from their tradition, and the pig tells a story of its own in its obvious wear. He brought it into his marriage carefully wrapped in tissue, and it remained all through his life preserved in an attic closet. At the time of my mother's death my brother asked if I would like it. My father was very dear to me, and I have asked to have this preserved in his memory in the Sheldon Museum to indicate the difference between the strict Puritan beliefs of that day and the present, from 1888 to 1978.“ In loving memory from his daughter, Helen Wright Holm.

Early Weybridge, VT, circa 1800 – 1850 When Charity and Sylvia settled into their cottage on the Hagar farm in 1809, Weybridge was fast becoming a prosperous village. Chartered in 1761 and settled in the mid-1770s, the town’s population soared from 175 in 1790 to 750 in 1810. Weybridge boasted several saw mills and grist mills, some bought or built by Sylvia’s brother, Asaph; featured a trip-hammer shop for making scythes; and was home to furnaces and forges, all powered by the myriad water falls of Otter Creek that courses through the town. Crop farming largely drove the local economy, which would soon be augmented by lumbering and sheep grazing. The early residents of Weybridge were also a pious folk. They held prayer meetings in neighbors’ homes and gathered for Sunday services in a meeting house located on the south side of present-day Route 23 just east of the village a little distance into the woods. Although they organized the Congregational Church in 1794, the present-day brick structure in the village center was not built until 1847-48. Throughout the first half of the nineteenth century, servicing the Congregational Church fell to several resident and itinerant ministers, as well as to a few Middlebury College professors. Two Methodist Churches and a community of Quakers, all located in the “Twin Bridges” section north of the village center, soon added to the piety of Weybridge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/788c06b2-35a5-43fc-aab7-78724cbd856f/Adieu+-+acrostic%2C+B1%2CF8A-+Enhanced+copy.jpg Charity and Sylvia - Adieu and Lydia Richards Charity Bryant had several relations with women prior to meeting Sylvia in Weybridge in 1807. One of the latest was with Lydia Richards, a school teacher like herself, to whom she wrote a short poem, just before her trip to Vermont in February 1807, “Adieu, _________________].: Lydia soon replied with many passionate letters to Charity before finally succumbing to the realization that Charity was not coming back.

Before the invention of photography in the early 1840s, silhouette making was a popular, inexpensive method of portraiture. Often itinerant artists, usually men, but sometimes women, produced such portraits. Unadorned singular and double images were not atypical for the period. However, Charity’s and Sylvia’s double silhouette framed by a pink silk border and adorned with woven hair braided into heart-like shapes in between the two figures is highly unusual. It is possible that Charity and Sylvia created this final composition themselves out of images provided by itinerant artist. The silhouettes portrait was found among a trunk-full of letters and other archival documents given to Henry Luther Sheldon by Sylvia’s brother’s descendants in 1897. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/482b2a8d-fe5d-46c0-b378-0ecea33f2ccb/2003.026.001+-+Charity+Bryant%2C+pin+cushion.jpg Charity and Sylvia - Tailoring business Charity and Sylvia supported themselves with a tailoring business throughout their lives cutting and making clothes by hand, prior to the invention of a sewing machine. Charity was an expert cutter of many different kinds of clothing items including vests, coats, suits, pantaloons, women gowns, bonnets and cloaks. Sylvia, a tireless seamstress, was later assisted by young local women who boarded with them. They made clothes for women and men, including local ministers. Making clothes for men was usually reserved for male tailors, but Charity and Sylvia were able to assert themselves in this area due to their expert skills. Their meticulous accounting system often indicates bartering and generous giving of services for various mutual favors by neighbors and family. Sylvia in her diary on Feb. 3, 1821 wrote: “Hard work + close calculation will not accumulate properties unless you have confidence + disposition to demand something for your labour,” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/ec8ccd91-90e9-4a6d-8dff-9472613643d8/Adult+Cradle1+-+Charity+Bryant+%26+Sylvia+Drake.JPG Charity and Sylvia - Adult Cradle, ca. 1815 Constructed by Asaph Drake. Illness was a common factor of life in the nineteen century, and few effective remedies and treatments existed. This cradle belonged to Charity and Sylvia. Both women suffered from variety of ailments including heart disease, rheumatism, headaches, toothaches, and other sores and pains. They kept the cradle in their main room in front of the hearth and often rocked each other to bring relief and sooth the nerves. On March 9, 1821, Sylvia recorded that “Mrs. _____ most sick takes a refreshing nap in our cradle,” and on September 23, 1823, Sylvia wrote that she “Felt quite sick have all that I need brot to the cradle.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/02a90bab-375a-4d72-bea6-da3995e6c252/Headstone_2020+Weybridge+Cemetery.jpg Charity and Sylvia - Charity and Sylvia’s Passing Sylvia and Charity built their cottage on a ¼ acre leased from Sarah Hagar. During their lifetime they expanded it and maintained a cheerful garden of roses around it. However, when their health began to decline, the house fell into disrepair, and in time, succumbed to ruin. After Charity’s death in 1851, Sylvia spent her remaining years living in her older brother Asaph Drake’s brick house on Morgan Horse Farm Road.

Thy best of blessings send, Ye Guardian Powers! Protect my lovely friend. Let grief within her bosom find no place Visit her soul with thy peculiar grace In all her steps, may she thy goodness prove Attune her heart to Gratitude and Love. Divest her mind of every needless fear, Restore her health, and make her still thy care, And O! to Thou!

Dr Smith suffered from “taphephobia” or a fear of being buried alive. In order to safeguard against this possibility, he had unique requests for his grave. It was built with a window connected to a six-foot concrete shaft that led down to Timothy’s face so loved ones could ensure he was well and truly dead. While condensation has made it difficult to see him, some claim they can still see the presence of his now skeletal face. Legend reports too that he was buried with a bell in one hand to call for help and a chisel to break out if he came back to life. While Dr. Smith is now remembered for his unique interment, his life itself is worthy of noting as well. Smith spent a large part of his life in the Black Sea region, first as a surgeon and later as a diplomat in Odessa. Two historical maps of the region along with Smith and his family portraits are currently on display at the Sheldon Museum. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/f027edd4-deb9-4c98-b57d-d82e5c72d36d/Cemetery+Tour+for+Website+%283%29.png Evergreen Cemetery - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/a770f815-26e8-4689-94f0-3d546c341d41/window-grave-panoramio-geoffhoward.jpg Evergreen Cemetery - Timothy Clark Smith Timothy Clark Smith’s grave attracts tourists from all across New England due to its unique construction to provide an escape route for its inhabitant.

In 1935, the remains of a woman and two adolescent boys, presumed to be her sons, were found in the woods about 4 miles outside of Middlebury. All of the victims had been killed in identical fashion - a single gunshot wound to the temple and by the time their remains had been found, it had been 3-5 years since they were killed. Their deaths were determined to be a triple homicide, but past that point the case went cold. Several leads and persons of interest were investigated, but no conclusive evidence was found. The remains sat boxed up in an office for decades, until they were finally laid to rest in Middlebury in 2015.

She was orphaned at age 10 and raised by her grandmother. Around 1905, Sarah and Charles Partridge hired Louise to perform household chores and in time, she became Sarah’s companion until her death in 1917. Their son, Frank C. Partridge, a prominent diplomat and businessman, helped Louise attend a podiatry school at the Boston University. Upon her return, she purchased a house on South Street in Middlebury, where she lived until her death in 1960. Miss Manning, as she was known, was an active community member and a self-supporting professional woman. She advertised her services as chiropodist (now known as podiatrist) and supplemented her income by renting rooms in her home to vacationers from across the country. At times she also housed Middlebury College students of color. Louise Manning’s social, culinary, gardening and community outreach skills were unsurpassed. She developed many friendships, among them, with her South Street neighbors, the Stephan Freeman family. Since the early 1920s, she was regularly mentioned in local newspapers as either host, guest, or an active member in various organizations, including the East Middlebury Red Cross, the Cornwall DAR, the Middlebury Bridge Club, and as committee member of the Youth Hostel on Rt. 7 South. When she passed, her friends established the “Louise Manning Memorial Fund” at the Ilsley Library to purchase books in the amount of $500 (over $5,000 today). The books were to reflect Miss Manning’s interests: “nature lore, gardening, youth, and social and racial questions.” She is buried in the Partridge Family plot in East Middlebury. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/e5a9eef6-8955-4fdc-8655-ed8013eb4d61/Cemetery+Tour+for+Website+%286%29.png East Middlebury Cemetery - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/3099a286-575b-4e5f-bf56-1f882e81b8bd/ezgif.com-gif-maker.png East Middlebury Cemetery - Jane Doe & Her Two Sons The east Middlebury Cemetery is home to the victims of Vermont’s oldest cold case.

The books were to reflect Miss Manning’s interests: “nature lore, gardening, youth, and social and racial questions.” She is buried in the Partridge Family plot in East Middlebury. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/juddharris-window-restoration-project daily 0.75 2022-12-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1671146302047-T7TU96CMVCW4R53CRUPJ/Sheldon+Exterior.jpg Judd-Harris Window Restoration Project https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1671146299860-DG69CGAVKILM2GBE25D8/P1220146.jpg Judd-Harris Window Restoration Project https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1671146267199-8XTTQG78T6PWJY912XM8/4.+Willard+Street+Traditions+workshop+%281%29.jpg Judd-Harris Window Restoration Project https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1671146267498-CT8BL1BE3REWNCU27IL8/5.+Museum+visitors+enjoying+the+restored+windows.jpg Judd-Harris Window Restoration Project https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1671146268638-FRG0PM5FTJS6WHMIOYC2/315845832_499833928842182_3539163441867292282_n.jpg Judd-Harris Window Restoration Project https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1671146309447-L61I9K4M2MKYONEA0AJO/P1220149.jpg Judd-Harris Window Restoration Project https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/whowashenry daily 0.75 2022-03-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/be025e1d-6f9a-425d-8055-19cbdde988dc/1984.042.001r_MS.JPEG+-+drawing+of+Henry+Sheldon+after+1842+daguerreotype%2C+1875.jpg Who Was Henry? - Who was Henry Sheldon? Henry Luther Sheldon was born on August 15, 1821, and raised on his father Samuel’s farm in Salisbury, Vermont, six miles south of Middlebury. He was the youngest of four boys: Homer, Horace, Harmon, and Henry. His mother, Sarah Weeks, was a former teacher and had Henry reciting his ABCs by age three. In 1841, he moved to Middlebury, where he would remain for the majority of his life. A man of many talents and diverse interests, Henry was a clerk, businessman, railroad postman, organ maker, and entrepreneur, among other things. He dabbled in marble quarrying, real estate, lumber, and retail, all the while a fervent Mason and a devoted member of St. Stephen’s Church. Music was central to Henry and he served as church choir director and organist for 33 ½ years until his lifelong hearing impairment left him unable to hear even the booming church organ. Henry cultivated an active social life and was omnipresent around town, serving as elected officer of the village, a member of the Union Club and an enthusiastic participant in numerous other local organizations. He enjoyed playing cards, wrote amateur poetry, and was meticulous in the research of his family genealogy. It was not until his 50s that he developed the passion for collecting that would lead to the establishment of a museum to benefit future generations of Vermonters. Henry L. Sheldon passed away on February 28, 1907 and is buried in the West Cemetery in Middlebury. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/be025e1d-6f9a-425d-8055-19cbdde988dc/1984.042.001r_MS.JPEG+-+drawing+of+Henry+Sheldon+after+1842+daguerreotype%2C+1875.jpg Who Was Henry? - Who was Henry Sheldon?

He was 25 years old, serving as a musician, First Class, in the U.S. Navy, on the U.S.S. Cruiser South Dakota, and died of pneumonia at Chelsea Naval Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts. Sterns had enlisted on June 29, 1917 in Burlington, Vermont. His death came just shy of his nine-month enlistment anniversary. In the spring of 1918 the first deaths later attributed to the Spanish Influenza were recorded and often listed as “pneumonia’ on the death certificates. This is likely the case with Karl Sterns. As described in FLU: The Story of the Great Influenza Pandemic of 1918 and the Search for the Virus That Caused It, “Some almost immediately became ill, unable to get enough oxygen because their lungs had filled with fluid. They died within days, or even hours, delirious with a high fever, gasping for breath, lapsing at last into unconsciousness. In others, the illness began as an ordinary flu, with chills, fever, and muscle aches, but no untoward symptoms. By the fourth or fifth day of the illness, however, bacteria would swarm into their injured lungs and they would develop pneumonia that would either kill them or lead to a long period of convalescence.” According to an article in the Naval History Magazine, April 2002, Vol. 16, Number 2, “There were so many patients at Chelsea Naval Hospital that tents had to be erected on the lawn to handle the overflow. Before it was over, 26 sailors in the Boston area died from the disease.” Sterns’ funeral service was well attended in Middlebury. Unfortunately for the family, the same week Karl Sterns’ uncle, his father’s brother, died of pneumonia in Chicago. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1658504495662-S4E93Q8K4SFHSUSEW3QS/1984.352.044+-+Capt.+John+W.+Stewart%2C+Coronado%2C+CA%2C+1919.jpg Addison County Soldiers - John W.

Phair Anne Freese, the proprietor of a brothel in Rutland, Vermont was found stabbed to death and her home burned down early in the morning of Tuesday, June 9, 1874. Jewelry was missing from her quarters, leading police to believe whoever possessed the missing items must have killed her. Police were immediately suspicious of her ‘close associate,’ 28 year old John P. Phair who was known as a “ne’er do well” in his youth. Phair had left town the morning of the fire, according to him, to go to Rhode Island to look for work, stopping in Boston only briefly to change trains. However, a pawn shop owner in Boston identified him as the man who pawned a watch matching exactly one missing from Ms. Freese’s possessions, down to the serial number. This evidence was enough to convict Phair and sentence him to the death penalty. He continued to protest, claiming the judge (who had sentenced him to hard labor as a teenager) was biased against him and the pawn shop owner was mistaken. His repeated claims of innocence kicked up a stir in the press across New England with many conflicted over whether he had been convicted justly. Despite a reprieve for his initial execution date, he was hung in St. Alban’s on April 10th, 1879 for murder. Read the full tale here to decide whether you believe his pleas of innocence. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/d1325370-7fc3-469f-abca-22c7184f9b93/g51184.jpg Prospect Cemetery - Joshua Aldrich Joshua Aldrich took an incredible journey to become a well-liked resident of Vermont, and more broadly New England. An obituary from the time of his passing sums up his life best: “The deceased was born in slavery in 1845 on the Whitfield estate at Goldsboro, North Carolina. At the breaking out of the Civil War his master joined the Confederate army and Mr. Aldrich accompanied him as a waiter. During the war he escaped from the confederate camp and made his way into Union lines, enlisting in 1864 in Co.I 96th New York Volunteers and srving until 1866 when he was honorably discharged on account of the close of the war. Soon after this he came north, making his home in Shelburne, this state, where he remained for a number of years [ he only resided outside of VT between the passing of his first wife (Cynthia Phelps) and the passing of his second wife (Orphah Storms) ]. ‘Josh’ as he was familiarly called, notwithstanding being born in slavery, and the adverse conditions which surrounded his early life, developed into a man of some education, gained through his own efforts, was honest, was sober, of good character, and was well liked by all his acquaintances.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/0ff90070-0235-4a33-a0c6-88894995d3c6/Cemetery+Tour+for+Website+%287%29.png Prospect Cemetery - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/cb471b0b-0b58-4f4c-bb43-6170cf83981d/106546323_1442324824.jpg Prospect Cemetery - John P. Phair Anne Freese, the proprietor of a brothel in Rutland, Vermont was found stabbed to death and her home burned down early in the morning of Tuesday, June 9, 1874. Jewelry was missing from her quarters, leading police to believe whoever possessed the missing items must have killed her. Police were immediately suspicious of her ‘close associate,’ 28 year old John P. Phair who was known as a “ne’er do well” in his youth. Phair had left town the morning of the fire, according to him, to go to Rhode Island to look for work, stopping in Boston only briefly to change trains. However, a pawn shop owner in Boston identified him as the man who pawned a watch matching exactly one missing from Ms. Freese’s possessions, down to the serial number. This evidence was enough to convict Phair and sentence him to the death penalty. He continued to protest, claiming the judge (who had sentenced him to hard labor as a teenager) was biased against him and the pawn shop owner was mistaken. His repeated claims of innocence kicked up a stir in the press across New England with many conflicted over whether he had been convicted justly. Despite a reprieve for his initial execution date, he was hung in St. Alban’s on April 10th, 1879 for murder. Read the full tale here to decide whether you believe his pleas of innocence. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/d1325370-7fc3-469f-abca-22c7184f9b93/g51184.jpg Prospect Cemetery - Joshua Aldrich Joshua Aldrich took an incredible journey to become a well-liked resident of Vermont, and more broadly New England. An obituary from the time of his passing sums up his life best: “The deceased was born in slavery in 1845 on the Whitfield estate at Goldsboro, North Carolina. At the breaking out of the Civil War his master joined the Confederate army and Mr. Aldrich accompanied him as a waiter. During the war he escaped from the confederate camp and made his way into Union lines, enlisting in 1864 in Co.I 96th New York Volunteers and srving until 1866 when he was honorably discharged on account of the close of the war. Soon after this he came north, making his home in Shelburne, this state, where he remained for a number of years [ he only resided outside of VT between the passing of his first wife (Cynthia Phelps) and the passing of his second wife (Orphah Storms) ]. ‘Josh’ as he was familiarly called, notwithstanding being born in slavery, and the adverse conditions which surrounded his early life, developed into a man of some education, gained through his own efforts, was honest, was sober, of good character, and was well liked by all his acquaintances.” https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/past-recordings daily 0.75 2022-01-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/971089e0-c7b9-44da-a714-12f21e91a2cf/Dario%2BRobleto%2C%2BA%2BSadness%2BSilence%2BCan%27t%2BTouch%2C%2B2005.jpg Past Recordings -

Collecting Cartoons Our archival collection includes two bound volumes of the Sunday Pictorial supplement (1898, 1899 and 1901) to the popular newspaper The New York World. The paper was published from 1860 to 1931 and was a leading voice of the Democratic Party of which Henry L. Sheldon was a member. From 1883 to 1911 it was published under the guidance of Joseph Pulitzer, who pioneered yellow journalism, the content of which was characterized by sensationalism, scandal, sex, sport, and political debacle. The New York World was also one of the first American newspapers to publish comic strips beginning in the late 1880s. The images were executed by skillful artists and often printed in full color, presenting not only eye-catching satire and humor for the amusement of the masses but also a feast for the eye. Pioneering cartoonists working for the newspaper included R. F. Outcault, one of the first to use multi-panel narrative strips to convey his stories. Outcault was known for the series “The Yellow Kid” and “Kelly Kids” that explored life on the streets and in tenements frequently scapegoating the Irish working class. Other notable artists who drew for the Supplement included Walter McDougall, Sid B. Griffin, and Carl T. Anderson. The subjects of these cartoons were in tune with the spirit of The New York World and the era they depicted. European and Asian immigrants and people of different races were broadly caricatured. African Americans were drawn as minstrel characters, Filipinos sketched as “savages” during this time of the Spanish-American War (1898), and Native Americans were repeatedly ridiculed as uncultivated primitive beings. Other images focused on political satire, New York society during the Gilded Age, fashion, beauty and new technological advances, such as the automobile. From the armchair of remote Middlebury, VT, Henry L. Sheldon collected broadly with an eye on world events and the national stage. We are lucky to have these early cartoons in our collection, as they are key historical documents of American popular culture. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/2f6aeea9-240b-4c98-8d94-5cc871df1c05/Henry+the+Musician.jpg Cartoons, Scrapbook, and Music - Henry the Musician Music was central to Henry L. Sheldon’s life. He could sing and play multiple instruments from an early age. The organ was his specialty, and he even constructed several, relying on his natural affinity for the instrument. Henry’s services as organist or pianist were much in demand throughout Addison County. In 1842 he became organist at St. Stephen's Episcopal Church in Middlebury, a position he held for 33 ½ years until increasing deafness forced him to resign. In 1865 Henry opened his Middlebury MUSIC HALL business– buying and selling music and instruments, renting and tuning pianos and organs. At one time the store had up to 25 instruments in rental circulation with $400 in sales. Later, as he devoted his time to acquiring materials for his newly formed Museum, Henry collected various musical materials of local and national importance. These unique musical treasures are available for research and enlightenment today. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/abd1102a-ac4f-4af9-809d-07e1bdd5f66e/Scrapbook+Pedestal.jpg Cartoons, Scrapbook, and Music - Henry’s Scrapbooks Henry L. Sheldon compiled over 200 scrapbooks on a variety of subjects, many focusing on early Middlebury history, its citizens and community developments. The highlight of the scrapbooks is #173, “The House Book,” which details the history of every building in the village of Middlebury in 1876 and again in 1901. It also includes invaluable information about the Middlebury Fire of 1891. Other scrapbooks include the “Annals of Middlebury,” which includes ephemera from local events in the 19th century; early settlers; Middlebury fires; Middlebury merchants, 1880-1900; Middlebury waterways and roller skating; all known portraits of people who resided in Middlebury in 1800; Middlebury College documents, and many others. In addition, several volumes of autographs of nationally prominent and locally important people complement the collection. Broader subjects, some of which are unrelated to the local area, include the death and funeral of General and President U.S. Grant, nobility of Scotland, Egyptian hieroglyphics, foreign currency, and much more. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/bc5e197e-464e-412d-863b-c88edd2fe708/Cartoons.jpg Cartoons, Scrapbook, and Music - Collecting Cartoons Our archival collection includes two bound volumes of the Sunday Pictorial supplement (1898, 1899 and 1901) to the popular newspaper The New York World.

The map highlights the land’s economic potential, rich in furs, pelts, lumber, and other natural resources, an important point to convey to a Dutch Republic on the brink of a new imperial project westward. The map obscures the presence of Indigenous people in North America, who are alluded to in the depiction of a settlement in the map’s upper left corner. The map’s only other nod to Indigenous presence resides in the titular cartouche, which is flanked by a pair of “Native” figures whose unclothed bodies are largely ornamental. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/82867f2a-0492-4f73-8321-7b8c5f772034/Johnson+VT+and+NH-VT.jpg Elephant in the Archives - Maps of New Hampshire &Vermont (Left) Plan of Johnson, VT Manuscript survey by Eben W.

Their war parties ranged the eastern woodlands, from the River St. Lawrence far into the deep south; from the rivers of Maine to the Mississippi… During this long age of warfare this region became a regular no-mans-land, and such it continued to be until the white man came.

The Sheldon houses several collections related to Indigenous culture, but little study has been undertaken to better understand these artifacts in our Museum.

The map highlights the land’s economic potential, rich in furs, pelts, lumber, and other natural resources, an important point to convey to a Dutch Republic on the brink of a new imperial project westward. The map obscures the presence of Indigenous people in North America, who are alluded to in the depiction of a settlement in the map’s upper left corner. The map’s only other nod to Indigenous presence resides in the titular cartouche, which is flanked by a pair of “Native” figures whose unclothed bodies are largely ornamental. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/82867f2a-0492-4f73-8321-7b8c5f772034/Johnson+VT+and+NH-VT.jpg Elephant in the Archives - Maps of New Hampshire &Vermont (Left) Plan of Johnson, VT Manuscript survey by Eben W.

For the next forty-four years, with the exception of one month, they spent every day in each other’s company until Charity’s death at eighty four. Together they built their family house, supported themselves running a well sought after tailoring business, were active participants in the local church and charities, and maintained broad contacts with members on both sides of their families. In doing so, they became accepted as a couple into the Weybridge community. And there, as in life, they rest together under one tomb stone as any married couple would. The Sheldon archives holds a collection of poems, diaries and correspondence documenting Charity and Sylvia’s lives. It also includes a double silhouette of both women from ca. 1815 that is now considered the earliest image of same-sex couple in the United States.

Jewett got his start as a successful Merino sheep farmer. However, he decided to take quite a drastic career turn. Jewett began to style himself Dr. Solomon Jewett, D. M. (Doctor of Magnetism). He advertised himself as a “Mesmeric and Magnetic Physician. The Seventh Son and Natural Doctor. Born with special Gifts. Insanity, palsy, deafness, blindness, Pains Chronic Sicknesses and Disease depart before the power under his control and WILL and HAND.” He took this show on the road and even discovered a new medium to express his psychic powers - photography. His photographs expressed ‘with proof’ the presence of spirits and his ability to commune with the dead. He even took a photograph with his dear friend from beyond who he frequently communicated with, George Washington. Jewett died in Santa Barbara on October 30, 1894, one day short of Halloween. His body was brought back by train to Weybridge for burial next to his first wife Fidelia (Solomon was married three times). Now, as the nights get longer, listen for a light tapping in your parlor.

His business ventures ebbed and flowed, but throughout his adult life in Middlebury he began to amass a wide variety of items in the upper two floors he occupied in the brick house at 1 Park Street, eventually officially incorporating the Sheldon Art Museum, Archaeological and Historical Society through a formal charter from the State Legislature. He cared particularly about the records & history of the local area, but his interests also ranged far beyond the world of Vermont - he was keenly interested in anything Egyptian, for example.

This is the final resting place of Amum-Her-Khepesh-Ef, the supposed son of Pharaoh Sen Woset III and Queen Hathor-Hotpe who died at age 2. Collector Henry Sheldon purchased this mummy for display in his museum through an antique dealer who would’ve acquired it from grave robbers. However, Sheldon was disappointed in the poor condition the mummy arrived in, relegating it to be hidden away in the museum’s attic indefinitely. When curator George Mead discovered the mummy in 1945, he felt it deserved a proper burial. Fearing the interference of local student pranksters if he buried the mummy untouched, Mead cremated it and interred it within his family plot. The gravestone of the mummy was recently taken down for repairs and may not be viewable at the time of your visit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/190cdd4a-23ee-48e8-b6fd-ca7d064810b1/Screen+Shot+2022-10-24+at+9.29.45+AM.png West Cemetery - Eliza Dodson The Slade family plot (whose obelisk is on the right end of this image) contains an interesting addition to the family. Most of the plot commemorates family members, notably William Slade - a Vermont governor, U.S. representative and a vigorous anti-slavey advocate. However, one end is dedicated to Eliza Dodson whose inscription reads “In memory of Eliza Dodson, colored. Born in the City of Washington. Died Apr. 29, 1853 aged 18. Given by her mother to Wm & Abigail Slade at the age of 7. A faithful, conscientious, devoted servant.” Her obituary notes that Dodson’s mother was born into slavery in the District of Columbia. Dodson’s role as a servant in the home of an antislavery family is puzzling, but evidently her place in the Slade monument speaks to a close relationship with the family. Perhaps the exact nature of her place is in the family will remain buried with her. Curious to learn more about Black residents of Addison County?

Slade was born in Cornwall in 1798 and graduated from Middlebury College in 1807. He would go on to practice law in the town of Middlebury where he would begin his political career - serving at different times as Vermont Secretary of State, Judge of Addison County, and Clerk in the US State Department. Slade then served in the US House of Representatives from 1831 to 1843, where he proposed the creation of a committee to discuss slavery and spoke of its inhumanity, attempting to circumvent a rule that forbade the discussion of “contentious” topics. Afterwards, he served as Vermont’s governor from 1844 to 1846. He is remembered for his staunch belief in the abolitionist cause. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/69c7e41c-949a-49b8-ac91-c6b7a4d15520/4948.jpg West Cemetery - Joseph Battell Joseph Battell was a philanthropist known for his extensive preservation of Vermont land. Born in 1839, Battell had purchased 30,000 square acres of land by the time of his death in 1915 making him Vermont’s largest individual landowner. Much of this land, which made up areas such today’s Breadloaf Wilderness and the Joseph Battell Wilderness, was placed in perpetual trusts to ensure they were preserved as “wild lands.” Battell was a trustee of Middlebury Collegee from 1881-1915 and left a majority of the land to Middlebury College, after which was sold to the US Forest Service. Battel Hall at Middlebury was named after the philanthropist to honor the gift he made to the college. Battell was also a publisher of the Middlebury Register from 1884-1915 and authored several books including “Ellen, or the Whisperings of an Old Pine” and “The American Stallion Register.” His niece, Jessica Stewart Swift was also a great benefactor to the town of Middlebury and the Henry Sheldon Museum. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/fa9ff0b2-d117-4572-93ce-5f6d2b066876/7456000_123813393821.jpg West Cemetery - Gamaliel Painter Gamaliel Painter and his first wife Abigail settled in Middlebury in 1773 along Otter Creek. Painter supposedly embarked on numerous spy operations during the American Revolutionary War and would serve in numerous political positions after the war. He is best remembered for his affiliation with Middlebury College, helping to obtain a charter for the school and overseeing the construction of its first building (Painter Hall). Upon his death he left most of his estate to the school, famously including his distinctive walking cane. Every Middlebury graduate receives a reproduction of his cane upon graduation from the college. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/37f60a74-4366-45bd-b12f-4e0f889bc6dc/CEM2505466_231135bd-f20c-4d09-8f83-2bcc5167e052.jpeg West Cemetery - William Douglass This gravestone lies on the edge of the Ralph Myers Golf Course, only a few steps off of where it overlaps with the Trail Around Middlebury. The lone grave is that of William Douglass, a survivor of military service in both the French and Indian War and the Revolutionary War. So, why is Douglass found in this lonely spot, dead at only 48 years old? The story goes that Douglass was out cutting wood with his two young sons when a tree fell and killed him. Supposedly, he was buried at the exact spot he was killed, leaving behind this stone as one of the only remaining records of his existence. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/a5dc2fc6-b62a-4d12-b37d-e05d13e58464/Cemetery+Tour+for+Website+%282%29.png West Cemetery - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/ecba3ba8-9ca6-4492-bdcf-f27cf520b9ef/Henry+L.+Sheldon%2Cdag.+c.+1850.jpg West Cemetery - Henry Sheldon The founder of the Sheldon Museum, Henry Sheldon, was an eccentric man with a passion for collecting.

This is the final resting place of Amum-Her-Khepesh-Ef, the supposed son of Pharaoh Sen Woset III and Queen Hathor-Hotpe who died at age 2. Collector Henry Sheldon purchased this mummy for display in his museum through an antique dealer who would’ve acquired it from grave robbers. However, Sheldon was disappointed in the poor condition the mummy arrived in, relegating it to be hidden away in the museum’s attic indefinitely. When curator George Mead discovered the mummy in 1945, he felt it deserved a proper burial. Fearing the interference of local student pranksters if he buried the mummy untouched, Mead cremated it and interred it within his family plot. The original gravestone of the mummy was damaged beyond repair and has been replaced by a flat stone with the same inscription. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/190cdd4a-23ee-48e8-b6fd-ca7d064810b1/Screen+Shot+2022-10-24+at+9.29.45+AM.png West Cemetery - Eliza Dodson The Slade family plot (whose obelisk is on the right end of this image) contains an interesting addition to the family. Most of the plot commemorates family members, notably William Slade - a Vermont governor, U.S. representative and a vigorous anti-slavey advocate. However, one end is dedicated to Eliza Dodson whose inscription reads “In memory of Eliza Dodson, colored. Born in the City of Washington. Died Apr. 29, 1853 aged 18. Given by her mother to Wm & Abigail Slade at the age of 7. A faithful, conscientious, devoted servant.” Her obituary notes that Dodson’s mother was born into slavery in the District of Columbia. Dodson’s role as a servant in the home of an antislavery family is puzzling, but evidently her place in the Slade monument speaks to a close relationship with the family. Perhaps the exact nature of her place is in the family will remain buried with her. Curious to learn more about Black residents of Addison County?

Slade was born in Cornwall in 1798 and graduated from Middlebury College in 1807. He would go on to practice law in the town of Middlebury where he would begin his political career - serving at different times as Vermont Secretary of State, Judge of Addison County, and Clerk in the US State Department. Slade then served in the US House of Representatives from 1831 to 1843, where he proposed the creation of a committee to discuss slavery and spoke of its inhumanity, attempting to circumvent a rule that forbade the discussion of “contentious” topics. Afterwards, he served as Vermont’s governor from 1844 to 1846. He is remembered for his staunch belief in the abolitionist cause. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/69c7e41c-949a-49b8-ac91-c6b7a4d15520/4948.jpg West Cemetery - Joseph Battell Joseph Battell was a philanthropist known for his extensive preservation of Vermont land. Born in 1839, Battell had purchased 30,000 square acres of land by the time of his death in 1915 making him Vermont’s largest individual landowner. Much of this land, which made up areas such today’s Breadloaf Wilderness and the Joseph Battell Wilderness, was placed in perpetual trusts to ensure they were preserved as “wild lands.” Battell was a trustee of Middlebury Collegee from 1881-1915 and left a majority of the land to Middlebury College, after which was sold to the US Forest Service. Battel Hall at Middlebury was named after the philanthropist to honor the gift he made to the college. Battell was also a publisher of the Middlebury Register from 1884-1915 and authored several books including “Ellen, or the Whisperings of an Old Pine” and “The American Stallion Register.” His niece, Jessica Stewart Swift was also a great benefactor to the town of Middlebury and the Henry Sheldon Museum. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/fa9ff0b2-d117-4572-93ce-5f6d2b066876/7456000_123813393821.jpg West Cemetery - Gamaliel Painter Gamaliel Painter and his first wife Abigail settled in Middlebury in 1773 along Otter Creek. Painter supposedly embarked on numerous spy operations during the American Revolutionary War and would serve in numerous political positions after the war. He is best remembered for his affiliation with Middlebury College, helping to obtain a charter for the school and overseeing the construction of its first building (Painter Hall). Upon his death he left most of his estate to the school, famously including his distinctive walking cane. Every Middlebury graduate receives a reproduction of his cane upon graduation from the college. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/37f60a74-4366-45bd-b12f-4e0f889bc6dc/CEM2505466_231135bd-f20c-4d09-8f83-2bcc5167e052.jpeg West Cemetery - William Douglass This gravestone lies on the edge of the Ralph Myers Golf Course, only a few steps off of where it overlaps with the Trail Around Middlebury. The lone grave is that of William Douglass, a survivor of military service in both the French and Indian War and the Revolutionary War. So, why is Douglass found in this lonely spot, dead at only 48 years old? The story goes that Douglass was out cutting wood with his two young sons when a tree fell and killed him. Supposedly, he was buried at the exact spot he was killed, leaving behind this stone as one of the only remaining records of his existence. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/brooks-education-fund daily 0.75 2025-10-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1671143647409-8IM9FX9HZ52CIEUHJB25/Bill+and+Pippin.jpg Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1678312732489-N1V6LDE3GZWCZ9BK0CNW/Henry+Sheldon+Museum%2C+Kids+enjoying+the+train+exhibit+at+the+Sheldon+Museum.+Photo+by+Trent+Campbell..jpg Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1678310439402-MENPOXX6X2FR8DQK2F4R/Where+is+sam+group+photo.jpg Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1671143652117-YQF9Y0X9HU5QADFXAQUN/Bill+Henry+at+200.png Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1678310447241-Z2UMCSE633H0ACF1IGWQ/Students+with+artist.jpg Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1678311235201-XA23KXANUSEWBSV8U1AX/Ashley+Wolff+in+gallery+with+kids.JPG Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1678310449194-AUPVTMX0AFZDRQN1BFPX/Where+is+Sam+paper+cutting+workshop.jpg Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1671143649289-XB5QDDCLDZ5LTER5SOUU/Bill+and+Rooster.jpg Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1671143650612-X52F9ZXNPQW9GKM0LA8P/Bill+and+Staff+2.png Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1671143647178-2UHP3PJS4FSA3VI30WDQ/Bill+and+Glenn+Eames.jpg Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1678310435876-26YVS8JRAN6LF7UUFAC8/Olivia+Tubio+with+Aurora+students.jpg Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1678310876925-NJES8UJ3NEYWP01WW8VT/Oter+Creek+Child+Center+kids+with+Big+Fish.jpg Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1678311238361-I7WFQHTMGH7P9GVRJRBE/Brother+and+Sister.jpg Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1678311340020-YBTJ3V64DGXNKXQ9KIKT/Ashley+Wolff+in+gallery+with+kids.JPG Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1678311418159-GOP95FZKIG93M0U10GZ5/FH5.jpg Brooks Education Fund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/6dca5a40-5203-4565-81d9-ef642215a4a2/makerspace+full.jpg Brooks Education Fund - In August of 2024, we opened the doors to our new Makerspace, a creative exhibit space designed to inspire hands-on engagement with art and history.

These cabinets (sometimes referred to by the German name Wunderkammer, or chamber of wonders) displayed collections of the marvelous, the strange, the wonderful: objects of nature and of human manufacture. Early collectors (primarily wealthy merchants and royalty) highlighted their political and social connections by displaying objects assembled from around the world. Henry’s spirit of collecting was inspired by these European Renaissance chambers. While he did collect many antiques, he was also interested in natural history, purchasing a set of walrus tusks and soliciting donations of shells, minerals, coral, and meteorites (fourth row). Like many others of his time, he was also excited about “oddities,” as seen in this ordinary-looking fork whose label (in Henry’s handwriting) indicates it was found “in the hind quarter of a cow.” This exhibit also offers a glimpse of Henry’s original display practices: a rectangular case on the third row shows a variety of objects sewn onto cotton backing with Henry’s hand-written labels identifying their eclectic origins: a cross and rosary carved by an Addison County prisoner, a stone from Plymouth, Massachusetts, a fragment of the ship USS Congress sunk in Lake Champlain in 1776, melted glass fragments from the Boston Fire of 1872. Cabinets of curiosities also featured wonders of human manufacture and technology from around the globe. The third row features a variety of pipes and smoking implements: Chinese and Turkish pipes, as well as a cigar holder fashioned from a chicken bone. These are contrasted with a nearby “pitch pipe” disguised as a book, used to help singers find the right starting note. The second shelf includes a very different kind of object related to inhalation and exhalation: the cutting-edge technology of a glass inhaler used for the application of anesthesia in a surgery performed in this very house, only five years after William Morton’s first successful public demonstration of the surgical innovation. Some of the objects cause us to marvel at their construction. The bottle whimseys on the second row feature wood-working tools that might hint at the origins of their manufacture: sawhorses, axes, saws, a measuring stick, and a sawbuck miraculously fit within glass bottles whose apertures are smaller than the wood constructions within. The necklace and watch fob on the fourth shelf disguise their materials to modern audiences, but they have been painstakingly crafted from human hair. In addition to his collecting prowess, Henry Sheldon was also an inventive creator himself. His “Memorial Chair” and “Memorial Casket” are on view upstairs, but this case also features a silver goblet on the second row as evidence of Henry’s own ingenuity: he has customized a silver goblet (from Gorham Manufacturing Company) with coins from his collection, meant to represent mystic spans of time and space in their combination of ancient and modern, near (U.S. coinage from the year of its manufacture, 1879) and far (Africa and Asia). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/805a2ffb-a048-47bf-8a19-d8d88e58767a/P1220138.jpg Cabinet of Curiosities - Henry’s Cabinet of Curiosities Top row: Walrus jaw and walrus skull (Clupea harengus), date unknown.

Some claim it was originally a gift from Francesco I de' Medici of Florence to King Philip II of Spain sometime between 1574 and 1587. Here, the game is printed in red ink on linen, with the directions in the middle of a simulated roulette wheel. Players travel along the spiral path of numbered spaces, 1-63, according to the roll of one or two dice. Landing on a goose allows players to double their move. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1660074837269-I8G4PPXN19BGSZWDVG9S/past+perfect+images1888.01.jpg Circling The Sheldon https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1660074837855-ZA0DT2AB00RK2E6MUKWG/past+perfect+images1985.396.0001.jpg Circling The Sheldon - Eyeglasses ca. 1815-1840 These c-bridge eyeglasses feature green lenses, brass rims, and flat side-pin temples. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1660074837910-EV4CERIXC04KHL254B0V/past+perfect+images1994.102.0004.jpg Circling The Sheldon - Basket and Cover This small vase shaped basket with cover features a basic pattern.

This bicycle is in original condition and, according to Glenn Eames, bicycle historian and owner of “Old Spokes Home” in Burlington, Vermont, is a signature piece of the times. It has a butcher hub cyclometer, which logs how many miles the bicycle has traveled. This bicycle has 12,020 miles logged. However, these instruments were inaccurate and the mileage could be much higher. The cyclometer is actually rarer than the bicycle. The wheel is 52”. There is no chain – big and small wheels designed with the concept of gearing (front and back wheels have ball bearing hubs). An individual would purchase a bike with a wheel that corresponded to his leg length, 64” being the largest wheel. Women would have only ridden this bike if they were trick riders. The saddle (seat) is an upgraded accessory called the “Lilly Bridge Hammock Saddle.” It was possible to order the bike with a variety of accessories. The hollow, drawn, tapered tubing on the front wheel fork and the spine connecting front wheel to back was new technology for that day. The Expert was a sophisticated touring machine. It sold for $130 in 1885. Only wealthier citizens could afford a bicycle, and they had the leisure time to ride it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1660074849404-W60SNULM4CUD0EV8J3CD/Windmill+Blades+Log+Cabin+Quilt+c+1870-1899.jpg Circling The Sheldon - Windmill Blades, Log Cabin Quilt ca. 1870-1899 This quilt features the Windmill Blades variety of the Log Cabin pattern. Notice the large circular outline within the quilt. The hand-pieced 16 inch squares are made of a variety of fabrics: wool challis, polished cotton, wool twills, and plain weaves. The purple fabrics are a distinctive element of 1870’s quilting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1660075641616-A6CB9MJ8S7GK6MAYXJCP/Yo-Yo+Quilt.jpg Circling The Sheldon - Yo-Yo Quilt ca. 1930s Easy and quick to make, these little circles of fabric became a popular method of quilting among women in the 1920s through the 1940s. The growing popularity of the yo-yo toy in the 1930s probably contributed to the increasing prevalence of this style of quilt. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/dairy-to-doorstep daily 0.75 2022-08-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1660312826387-GQAETM4XRULQV3IUHR6B/Addison+County+Fair+poster.jpg Dairy to Doorstep - Addison County Fair Poster, 1901 Addison County Fair Poster, 1901 57th Annual Addison County Fair, Middlebury, Vermont Collection of Henry Sheldon Museum A reproduction of this poster is available for sale in the Museum Shop. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1660312841195-93DF8ISR18MBFTMIZVZ9/Carved+Cow%2C+Bill+Holway+%281931-+%29.jpg Dairy to Doorstep - Carved Wooden Cow Bill Holway (1931- ) Carved Wooden Cow Private Collection Bill Holway grew up on his family’s farm in Rutland.

The folding frame made it easy to tilt the churn box to drain out the buttermilk, or to wash the water. The company assured that the rocking motion of the cradle would not injure the butter as the cream rolled over on itself to make the product. There is extensive stencil work on both the brace and the box of this churn. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1660312929765-QAG3T136EHM853U8N31F/Theodore+Roosevelt+Lee+%281899-1980%29%2C+Miniature+Milk+Wagon.JPG Dairy to Doorstep - Miniature Milk Wagon Theodore Roosevelt Lee (1899-1980) Miniature Milk Wagon Private Collection Lee was born in upstate New York where his father supervised logging camps.

Prince King & Miranda McHurd In this cemetery lies Prince King, the first black landowner in Middlebury. King first appears in local records in the 1830s, working for a prominent sheep farmer. Later with the help of that farmer, a neighbor, and an abolitionist lawyer, King was able to purchase a 70-acre farm on East Munger Street. King lived there with Miranda McHurd, a white woman whom he was in a common-law marriage with until she died of tuberculosis in 1877. When King died in 1884, his estate was left to Miranda’s sister Emily.

The “recollections” or memoirs she wrote give us a lot of insight into her life. She struggled to obtain an education, the focus of Deborah P. Clifford’s article linked here. She married a Middlebury College graduate, Warren Winchester in 1848 who eventually became a US Army Chaplain during the Civil War. With their four young children, she followed him to his station at a hospital in Washington DC. Sadly, one by one all her children contracted diphtheria, with only her son Willie surviving the disease. Her writing from this era still demonstrates an incredible perseverance and empathy for the suffering of others despite the tragedy that had struck her family. After the war ended, her family would return to Vermont and attempt to rebuild - however, out of the 12 children she would bear only her son Ben would survive to adulthood. She spent her old age with him in Concord, MA and upon her death she was buried in the Munger St Cemetery in order to be back under the Green Mountains she loved.

Together they built their family house, supported themselves running a well sought after tailoring business, were active participants in the local church and charities, and maintained broad contacts with members on both sides of their families. In doing so, they became accepted as a respected couple into the Weybridge community. And there, as in life, they rest together in the local cemetery under a single headstone as any married couple would.

In the age of homespun, pieced quilts were originally made by elite women who had the leisure time to create bedding that was beautiful as well as practical. Machine-made fabrics led to the democratization of quilting, as more women were able to take part. Quilting became a means of self-expression, as well as a way of stitching female community networks together in common cause. Quilting bees were the social events of the year, as women joined to transform a practical bed covering into a wonderful art form. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/miriam-adams-yarns-1 daily 0.75 2023-11-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1600380326958-H78AX57NL3ZTR1LENFEX/Pirouette.jpg Miriam Adams: Yarns - Pirouette (Copy) Pirouette Yarn twirling around a knitting needle, like a dancer with skirt billowing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1600380321389-GAPCJ0ULNQSSXIZC42KR/Forgive.jpg Miriam Adams: Yarns - Forgive (Copy) Forgive A good idea. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1600380323519-UV8WLZIHBGM86NPWI4Q2/Just+Leave+Me+Alone.jpg Miriam Adams: Yarns - Just Leave Me Alone (Copy) Just Leave Me Alone Artist’s statement. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1600380324451-JA3BO5KK0G8FNFAMUOVZ/Looped.JPEG Miriam Adams: Yarns - Looped (Copy) Looped Simple beauty in loops of yarn. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1600380329081-V7XL8NBGTWJNRUTAU6DI/Writing+a+Yarn.jpg Miriam Adams: Yarns - Writing a Yarn (Copy) Writing a Yarn A double-play on the word “yarn,” and a feather, a writing implement. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1600380325944-YT3XH1L4GKPMURQKSOS0/Piercing.jpg Miriam Adams: Yarns - Piercing (Copy) Piercing Blood-red yarn flows through a needle jabbed into a ball of yarn. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1600380329087-66TY21ZD28CKZAMT12R7/Tea+Time.jpg Miriam Adams: Yarns - Tea Time (Copy) Tea Time Sharing a story, a yarn, over a cup of tea. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/archive-tour-gallery daily 0.75 2023-11-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1602782879999-GAYMN76617S8093VU62K/1.+Entering+Stewart-Swift+Research+Center+from+the+Pierce+Gallery+of+the+Sheldon+Museum..jpg Archive Tour Gallery 1.

What is retained and what is forgotten in historical repositories? Local history museums and archives are vital to building healthy communities and to anchoring our understanding of the world around us. Collage artists have unique skills that are particularly useful in our historical moment. On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Sheldon Stewart-Swift Research Center, an international network of collage artists was invited to engage the Sheldon archival collections. Under the curatorial direction of Kolaj Institute Director Ric Kasini Kadour, and with the support of the Research Center staff, twenty-three artists from seven countries created collage prints that reflect upon the idea of community in the 21st-century world.

This exhibit explores his life, myriad of collecting pursuits, the establishment of what has become known as the oldest community-based Museum in the country, and an outstanding archive, the Stewart-Swift Research Center. Henry amassed one of the richest but little known historical collections in all New England, rendering Middlebury perhaps one of the best documented towns in the entire region. On view will be variety of historical documents, photographs, scrapbooks, autographs, Middlebury imprints, diaries, music ephemera, relics, a lock of Napoleon’s hair, and more.

She resides in Burlington and has installed public sculptures in the United States, New Zealand, Canada, Norway, and Japan. Her Sheldon Museum exhibit From the Heart features maquettes and drawings that reflect her artistic process plus three robust sculptures (two metal, one wooden) installed in the Museum’s garden. “My sculpture isn’t precious; it invites participation: with people, and with the sun, shadows and alignments at different seasons of the year. The position of the sun, moon and stars creates a structure, as a painter uses a rectangle for a frame of reference. Inspiration also comes from curves seen in nature.” Watch an interview with Kate here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1623954276415-H3QFR911ZA7XJMDLWH0H/image-asset.jpeg Exhibits Gallery - Drawing On The Past By Miriam Adams (Copy) Drawing On The Past By Miriam Adams Through the juxtaposition of natural and man-made objects, Miriam Adams creates images of striking intimacy. .

Big Little Tennis Star (Copy) Big Little Tennis Star I discovered 4-year-old Greta Jennison taking tennis lessons at the Middlebury Recreation Department’s tennis courts in 2010. She was so small, especially compared to her instructor Bob Crystal. I assumed one of my usual positions, down on the ground, to emphasize the size difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303439790-WEDOVFL3IBUI4BIPZVBX/2+Hello+Governor%21.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Hello Governor! (Copy) Hello Governor! After Jim Douglas became Vermont’s Governor in 2003, he still lived in Middlebury because Vermont doesn’t have an official Governor’s residence. When he and his wife Dorothy marched in Middlebury’s 2010 Memorial Day parade, they were hometown favorites. I like this photo because the Governor seems as happy to see the crowd as they do to see him! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617304044994-1G840CTRR0MWHRHR5UK6/3+Water+Sports.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Water Sports (Copy) Water Sports Middlebury’s Mary Johnson Children’s Center became a regular stop for me when I was looking for a fun standalone photograph. Here I found two 5-year-old boys, Chris Clark and Sean Martin, playing with balls and a water chute. My shooting position, down on the ground, was beneficial for capturing their excited expressions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303467622-J60QJXKTIQEFA990HB7Z/4+Memorial+Day+March.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Memorial Day March (Copy) Memorial Day March Civil War reenactors march in Orwell’s Memorial Day parade in 2010. The angle of the marchers enabled me to include their faces and the faces of the viewers on the side of the road. I am happy to include this photo as I rarely got to the Orwell parade due to my very busy Memorial Day weekend schedule. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303478403-JUSSP4BRDDJSGEMD9DLH/5+Water+Commute.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Water Commute (Copy) Water Commute Mike Sweeney, who drove the Addison Independent delivery van, lived across the lake in New York in 2009 when the Champlain Bridge was deemed unsafe and was closed. Before the state provided ferry service at the site, Mike got creative and used a small rowboat to commute to and from work. I squeezed into his tiny boat one afternoon to get his portrait. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303474907-2W6QZ5RJ61UXI7H86JSM/6+Retired.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Retired (Copy) Retired Albert Gatow retired from the Waltham Selectboard in 2003, and he was interviewed in his home in anticipation of the solemn occasion.

It’s such a tender moment, one similarly displayed by dozens of other young farmers at Field Days, that I was very pleased to capture it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303509121-79EK70AUX9WJA2IZ3F18/11+Roger+Layne.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Roger Layn (Copy) Roger Layn At Field Days in 2010, a new antique farm equipment building was dedicated to farmer Roger Layn. I arranged to meet him at the building, and it only took a few moments for him to present to me his wonderfully stoic, yet mischievous, gaze. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303513421-3RFWLWCBCKVTPSCXTVQL/12+A+Day+at+the+Fair.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - A Day at the Fair (Copy) A Day at the Fair For years, my paper’s advertising director had pleaded that I capture a single image that showed both the agricultural side and the fun side of Field Days. I finally found the shot in 2004 when I spotted two girls walking their calf past the show arena with the Midway’s Ferris wheel rising in the background. They walked along at just the right moment as I waited with this composition in my viewfinder. My advertising director was pleased! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303513341-AENXAXHGXWXPJJQKWH9K/13+Ruth+Stone.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Ruth Stone (Copy) Ruth Stone Ruth Stone was an author and poet living in Addison County. In the winter of 2002 when I arrived to photograph her, she was sitting with her feet over a heat vent hoping to get warm. Wanting a natural moment, I asked her to stay where she was, and I snapped away. To me, the humanness of the moment demanded black and white, so I converted the original color file. The original had too many light sources to provide a good color balance, and black and white also put more emphasis on Stone’s resting face. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303518784-XYTNJRUJFPPFE1ABZS4C/14+Man+Overboard.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Man Overboard (Copy) Man Overboard One day in August of 2003, after looking many times, I finally spotted a young man jumping off the rock above the pool below Bartlett Falls in Bristol. He was jumping from the outcrop seen in the lower right of the photograph, and the few images I got did not really excite me as I viewed them on the back of the camera. Then I heard a voice to my left call out, “Hey Trent!” I turned and saw Skylar Atkins, who I had known from his days as a student athlete at Mount Abraham, standing on a long flat rock in the middle of the river above the falls. “You got fast film in that camera?” he asked. Not wanting to explain the details of shooting digitally, I simply said, “Sure.” “Get ready,” he said, and then he took a few steps back on the rock. I raised my camera, and he took a running start and then dove out over the falls and into the pool below. I took several shots and just hoped they were in focus. After seeing that they were, I noticed the group of three kids watching in the upper right corner. I think they, along with Skylar’s perfect form, really make the photograph. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303532809-OQ5IB7132R63FB4KOL3A/15+Full+Attention.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Full Attention (Copy) Full Attention In January of 2013 Middlebury College students presented their work with Lego robots to a large group of kids and adults in Bicentennial Hall. The Science Center has an enormous glass wall that provides great light. I got down to table level to better include a spectator and a robot in the same composition, and I fired away. 5-year-old Juliette Hunsdorfer provided the face of wonderment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303535913-34PMEVPFJWNWR0E2HRED/16+Drivers+on+Display.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Drivers on Display (Copy) Drivers on Display For safety reasons and because of the standing room only crowd, I was always confined to the small announcer’s box at the Demolition Derby at Field Days every year. At the 2009 event, I leaned out the open window of the box and saw a group of drivers awaiting their turn to kick up some mud and cause some destruction on the track. I liked the expressive anticipation of this group. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617304330832-7CARVBG2UW09UDUK7BMS/17+Future+Farmer+of+America.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Future Farmer of America (Copy) Future Farmer of America Driving through New Haven in April of 2004 I spotted 2-year-old Palmer Guthrie on his toy tractor. I quickly turned the car around, and thankfully found his mother outside with him. She allowed me to take some photographs, so I laid down on the ground, my frequent position for my work, and snapped away. This Future Farmer of America was very serious about his play. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303551295-OZ53ZSIF58HC9QAYIWZJ/18+The+Music+Woman.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - The Music Woman (Copy) The Music Woman I'm a big fan of musical theater. In 2009, when I found out Town Hall Theater Executive Director Doug Anderson was about to stage one of my favorite shows, The Music Man, I asked him if I could document the production. I attended at least one rehearsal a week and produced many interesting and fun photographs (and met my future wife). I especially liked shooting in the rehearsal studio with its wall of mirrors which allowed me to get both sides of a scene. Here, Music Director Lindi Bortney works with the barbershop quartet of Glenn Andres, Frank Wright, Jeff Wulfman, and Christopher Diehl-Noble. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617304375024-BAVAWBQB09ZQDT2Q2SKD/image-asset.jpeg Trent Campbell Gallery - Lunch Hour (Copy) Lunch Hour I was at Ferrisburgh Central School in October of 2003 doing a story on the school’s hot lunch program when I turned away from the kitchen and looked across the gymnasium/cafeteria. Bright sunlight was streaming in, and it beautifully illuminated angelic kindergartner Emily LaLumiere as she went through her lunch and laughed with her friends. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303573857-BDX9UWU04S3MMI4QTL4M/20+From+Shine+to+Wine.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - From Shine to Wine (Copy) From Shine to Wine At New Haven’s Lincoln Peak Winery one day in September of 2010, I was lucky enough to catch Erich Marn cleaning out a fermenting tank. I used a ladder to look down on his work. The polished interior of the tank reflected his face in multiple ways and made an image of an ordinary, everyday chore into something more interesting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617304400060-F5EEANZ2NJRG4X0DB9ML/21+Watching+Ewe.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Watching Ewe (Copy) Watching Ewe Sheep have faces too, and they can even be very expressive. Here, a group of sheep on the Thompson/Duclos farm in Weybridge eye me suspiciously as I poke through some shrubs to get a shot of them and their sprawling barn which was a great photographic subject in itself. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303565036-ZIQFEHTE5QHEQTRK8075/22+Bridge+Workers.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Opening Day (Copy) Opening Day New York and Vermont held an opening ceremony for the new Champlain Bridge in November of 2011. For the ceremony I was corralled in a small space on the bleachers with other members of the press. There wasn't much to do but wait for the Governor and other dignitaries to take the stage and make remarks. I looked up and saw a group of Vermont construction workers walking across the bridge heading to the ceremony. I bumped elbows with other photographers as I quickly raised my camera and took one of my favorite photos of that year. The strong lines of the handsome bridge along with the determined looks from the workers make this image stand out. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303583553-0EP136P4KX4E9ERFKYOH/23+Beeman+Welcome.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - Beeman Welcome (Copy) Beeman Welcome Over the years I attended several naturalization ceremonies hosted in the Beeman Elementary School gymnasium. In 2014 a group of schoolkids stood and sang during the ceremony to welcome the new citizens. The black curtain and the American flag made a perfect backdrop for these fresh-faced kids caught in a patriotic moment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1617303586239-FPBWEZWNKQZFJ67Z23HL/24+The+Porker+Heels.jpg Trent Campbell Gallery - The Porker Heels (Copy) The Porker Heels The Platt Memorial Library in Shoreham was planning a summer of 2011 “Kiss a Pig” Fundraiser. In February they selected the piglet that would become the lucky pig that would get kissed. Organizer Kathleen Hescock took the piglet (Runty the Porker) out for a walk after a snowstorm. I assumed my frequent position on the ground so I could get both Hescock and the piglet's face in the same shot. Fortunately, Hescock and Runty expressed the levity of the moment. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/miriam-adams-clothing-1 daily 0.75 2023-11-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1600351071240-67CKDJK3H6GR9W7I6OGU/From+my+Mother.JPEG Miriam Adams: Clothing - From My Mother (Copy) From My Mother My mother, who did not like to sew, embroidered a baby kimono for her only child prior to my birth.

Silhouette art was a popular portraiture format in the pre-photography era prior to 1839. The double silhouette is part of the Drake/Bryant voluminous collection of correspondence, poems, diaries, and business records that document their lives and their forty-plus year relationship. The book, Charity & Sylvia: A Same-Sex Marriage in Early America (2014) by Rachel Hope Cleves, was largely based on the Center’s archival collection. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721587971-BELKHXWIC8S5CC8B98SA/ephemera.jpg Collection Highlights - Addison County Entertainment Ephemera, 1860-1920s (Copy) Addison County Entertainment Ephemera, 1860-1920s The Sheldon archival collection is particularly rich in entertainment and performance ephemera. One of the collection’s greatest attributes is that it attests to a robust and diverse social life in Vermont towns during the 19th and early 20th centuries. A wide variety of entertainment graced Addison County, bringing moments of comedy, tragedy, and celebration and witnessing political and social change. Audiences enjoyed theatrical performances, musical concerts, vaudeville and minstrel shows, traveling circuses, concerts, events, dances and lectures. Performers came from far away, but just as many were local individuals and groups. From posters, playbills, programs, broadsides, tickets, and other ephemera, a broad range of subjects and historical events emerge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721609885-7R0UUYG8B7FUY08M2J1O/power+loom.jpg Collection Highlights - Power Loom Drawings by Isaac Ebenezer Markham, 1814-1825 (Copy) Power Loom Drawings by Isaac Ebenezer Markham, 1814-1825 A sketchbook and close to sixty original power loom drawings, many in watercolor, were executed between 1814 and 1825 by a young Middlebury draftsman, Isaac Ebenezer Markham (1795-1825). The images are considered the earliest-known set of textile machine maker’s workshop drawings in the U.S. Among them is a view of the Boston Manufacturing Co. at Waltham, Mass. from c. 1820, also thought to be one of the earliest views of mills in Waltham. After travelling to other textile mills across New England, Isaac E. Markham returned to Middlebury, where he died of typhus. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721631899-F021KVPM1ZCE5IHKVGYV/chipman+atlas.jpg Collection Highlights - Manuscripts Maps by Sarah H. Chipman, 1823 (Copy) Manuscripts Maps by Sarah H. Chipman, 1823 A hand-drawn, beautiful miniature atlas, “A Book of Penmanship,” was created in 1823 by Susan H. Chipman (1808-1848), while a student at Miss Page’s School for girls in Middlebury. It is a remarkable example of the influence that a pioneering reformer of female education, Emma Willard, had upon local schooling. Willard introduced geography and astronomy into the girl’s curriculum while teaching in one of the first in the country female seminaries in Middlebury in the early 1800s. Chipman’s booklet contains thirty hand-colored maps accompanied by exquisitely rendered in ornamental calligraphy descriptive passages on Geography, the Solar System, and Climates. Susan H. was a daughter of Daniel Chipman, an early local settler, legislator and author. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721650816-YJD2EFDHW4TVP0VTVXWN/HLS+house+book.jpg Collection Highlights - "House Book", Henry L. Sheldon's Scrapbook #173, 1876-1901 (Copy) "House Book", Henry L. Sheldon's Scrapbook #173, 1876-1901 Henry L. Sheldon compiled over 200 scrapbooks, many focusing on early Middlebury history, its citizens and community development. The highlights among them is scrapbook #173, the “House Book,” that contains a history of every building in the Village of Middlebury compiled by Sheldon in 1876 and updated in 1901. In addition, the scrapbook includes extensive information about the 1891 Middlebury fire, the Weeks family genealogy, birth records in 1896 kept by Dr. Daniel C. Noble, photographs, and more. The building information was updated by the Center’s volunteers as the “Building History Register” project. The updated records are now frequently consulted by Middlebury property owners. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721666467-L7RPGHRBHC1PD2XHZIEQ/crystoleum.jpeg Collection Highlights - Crystoleum Portrait of Joseph Battell, c. 1890 (Copy) Crystoleum Portrait of Joseph Battell, c. 1890 Crystoleum, or American ivorytype, is a rare photographic technique that was mostly practiced in Europe. This portrait is of Joseph Battell (1839-1915), a local early environmentalist, philanthropist, Morgan horse breeder, and a person behind many of Middlebury’s architectural landmarks. Crystoleum consists of a photograph printed on the inside of a convex glass that is adhered to a bottom piece of paper or glass with a rudimentary painted portrait that aligns with a top one. This technique was an early attempt of introducing color into photography. The portrait was recently identified and restored and is one of a few known portraits of Joseph Battell. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721680941-MTIXOMSQP6OHVNCX3K0D/merrill+sermon.jpg Collection Highlights - Semicentennial Sermon by Thomas A. Merrill, 1840 (Copy) Semicentennial Sermon by Thomas A. Merrill, 1840 The “Semicentennial Sermon Containing a History of Middlebury...,” was delivered by Reverend Thomas A. Merrill in 1840 on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of establishment of the Congregational Church in Middlebury. It is considered one of the earliest sources of information about the history of the town from one who had witnessed much of it. Thomas A. Merrill (1780-1855), a graduate of Dartmouth College, came to Middlebury in 1804 as a tutor at Middlebury College. In 1805 he was ordained and served as pastor at the Middlebury Congregational Church during the turbulent era of the Second Great Awakening, a religious revival, a position he held until 1842. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7a0da508e4e2019ee23004/1607721698922-R83M45TKHMGV1R34GGP9/image-asset.jpeg Collection Highlights - Music of the Stewart, Battell, and Swift Families, 1800s-1910s (Copy) Music of the Stewart, Battell, and Swift Families, 1800s-1910s One of the most outstanding components of the Stewart-Swift Research Center’s musical holdings are those belonging to the Stewart, Battell, and Swift families in Middlebury. Together they form an unusual, historically valuable compilation of sheet music and bound music collected over several generations in a single area. Some family members bound their sheet music into volumes, and “The Bloomer Schottisch,” dated 1851, is part of a binder’s volume belonging to Emma Battell. This family music collection tells an important historical story and constitutes a significant resource for scholars of American music, also revealing much about 19th-century culture, particularly that of women, in New England and in the broader U.S. https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/publications daily 0.75 2024-07-10 https://www.henrysheldonmuseum.org/stocksiras daily 0.75 2025-10-28
