Mary Whalen Collection

Mary Whalen Collection

(350 Objects)

The Whalen family donated this collection to the Valdez Museum in 1999. It is a collection brimming with personal objects from 1900-1950 that help us visualize and understand the simple lifestyle of a family that called Valdez home for three generations. A sterling silver writing set, wooden rocking horse, hand tools, clothing, shoes, and hats are among the personal effects in this collection.
