IN THIS ISSUE - Ocean Bay Chapter of the Studebaker Drivers Club

Continued from page 6
State Capitol in Albany, Albany City Hall,
Hampden County Court House, Springfield
and the Marshall Field Building in Chicago.
Being a train lover, the authentic, old-world
ambiance of this historic Palmer Railroad
Station captured my imagination as I dined
under the station’s extensive canopies of
the lavish dining room with its exquisite
woodwork and views of passing trains.
The architecture of this train station is truly
magnificent!
Leaving the Steaming Tender Restaurant
we traveled up to the center of town to the
Pease Collection of Historical Instruments.
Nelson and Beverly Pease have a large
collection of antique reed organs packed
into a large storefront on Main Street
along with other pre-electric keyboard
instruments. Here our members toured
through the collection of these beautiful
old instruments and enjoyed the history of
the instruments as told by Beverly Pease.
From the Pease Collection of Historical
Instruments on Main Street we traveled
to the Pease private museum on Foundry
Street. This rustic museum is in a former
sawmill and has a 50 seat concert hall
where our Ocean Bay members enjoyed
an afternoon concert performed by Nelson
and Beverly Pease. The museum is packed
with self playing curiosities, player pianos
and tabletop roller organ, a harpsichord
and a 671 pipe Estey roller organ with a
collection of 1,000 rolls. We all had a great
day and enjoyed the hospitality of Nelson
and Beverly Pease.
