#1009 Shelburne Round Barn

All cards blank inside. Include colorful envelope in clear glassine bag.

Round Barn at Shelburne Museum, Shelburne, VT. Originally constructed in 1901 by Fred “Silo” Quimbly, the barn is a three-story building measuring eighty feet in diameter built in East Passumpsic, VT. In 1985 and 1986 the Shelburne Museum relocated the Round Barn to the Museum grounds. A helicopter flew the upper segment of the silo, which weighs nine thousand pounds, from Passumpsic to Shelburne, while workmen dismantled the remainder of the building piece-by-piece and transported it on flatbed trucks to Museum grounds.
