Past and Present has recently acquired a gorgeous, almost pristine music box that was made in Switzerland around the late 1800s. Take a peek at some of its unique features and stunning designs, then stop into the gallery and hear it play for yourself!
At Past & Present Home Gallery, we love acquiring pieces with a great background – especially if it relates to our hometown! This wooden beer box - circa 1930s - has quite the storied past that both beer lovers and Breweriana collectors will enjoy.
In celebration of our 10th year, we’re looking back at a few of our greatest highlights—both as a business and as a friendly, well-organized environment for local visitors and tourists alike.
Some of the first dealers to have worked with Past & Present, still actively sell items with us.

At the close of the American Civil War, General Logan gave directions to honor the fallen soldiers. This direction would become Memorial Day.
"The 30th day of May, 1868, is designated for the purpose of strewing with flowers or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village, and hamlet church-yard in the land. In this observance no form of ceremony is prescribed, but posts and comrades will in their own way arrange such fitting services and testimonials of respect as circumstances may permit..."
Thank you to the men and women who have given so much for us. We are forever grateful.
