The first store at this site is listed in the Sherman land records
as a mercantile belonging to David Northrop, Jr. in 1829. It
was acquired by the Society in 1999, preserved with the intent of
"reviving" the Old Store. Featuring displays from its past,
the Old Store is new again with a wide range of collectible merchandise
old and new which reflect Sherman's style and heritage. A store
museum c. 1867 gives visitors a chance to reminisce and a second floor
gallery shows rotating historical and art exhibitions. The Old Store accepts antiques and collectibles on consignments. |
