Holiday Derby-Beebe Summer House Block
Derby-Beebe Summer House - Dressed for the Holidays
(Federal Garden area)
Salem, Massachusetts
ca. 1799
This is a one-room structure built in the Federal style and intended for serving light afternoon meals in a garden setting. All the trademarks of the Federal style are found in this small building, which epitomizes the gracious architecture and lifestyle of its era. It is one of only two surviving summer house designed by Samuel McIntire.
"Salem has a uniquely rich architectural heritage. Every major American architectural style is represented within its borders."
Now you can tour PEM's historic homes from your own home! The museum's physical campus includes three city blocks and several off-site properties. We have collaborated with Cats Meow Village to recreate the museum's historic houses in their signature style. On the back of each is a brief description of the house and a QR code that will link to the PEM Walks tour, where you can find out more about the home's architectural history.
The Derby-Beebe Summer House is part of the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts.
The back includes a PEM Walks QR code that gives you an audio postcard tour of the Derby-Beebe Summer House. You can scan at home and listen, too!
We handcraft the Summer House in 3/4" thick wood with colorful details on the front and history on the back. H3.25 x W5 inches.
