Gardner Public Library Special Collections

In addition to the items on display at the Graves Library Museum and Wakefield Depot Museum, the Gardner Public Library hosts special collections of antique guns and Native American artifacts.

Two of the collections were donated by H.P. Shumway in 1924, and could be viewed in the basement of the Graves Public Library. They were later moved to the Gardner Public Library after it was built in 2004.

A photo gallery and information may be viewed on the Gardner Public Library website.
