The Depot museum is in need of two shelves. The area is approximately 3 feet square. Stop by the museum for the exact measurements. We also need several white three ring binders for 8.5 x 11 inch paper, preferably three inches inch wide or four inches wide. New or gently used will work.

This clock used to be in the Jerome Railroad Depot. In the 1970s it was removed and hung in the Jerome City Hall.then it was removed and given to a retiring fireman. He brought it back to the Depot Museum. We need to know on which wall it originally was hung so we can put it back in its original spot if possible.
