I have many fond memories of the Higgins Armory when I used to visit (from Fitchburg) in the mid 1950s. It was always an interesting place, no matter how often I went or how old I got. Hope it's still open to the public - one of those one-of-a-kind quirky museums that semed to strike the right chord (I never cared much for museums, but this was an exception). The building had wonderful natural light and the architecture sucessfully blended Gothic and Art Deco - that alone is a terrific achievement. Thanks for letting me reminisce.

I went to Burncoat High and sometimes on the way home we would stop and visit the Higgins Armory. Wonderful tribute to the days of yore as is this picture.

I remember visiting the Worcester Pressed Steel Musuem about 62 years ago. I was so impressed with the old bibles and armor. I would like to have my grandchildren visit this place to see if they would be as impressed as I was.

I always wanted to go to this museum. My teens are so wrapped up in medevil lore, ect. We'll have to check it out when we visit Worcester again.

I worked at Worcester Pressed Steel (Higgons Armory) 1972, they make Revere ware and at one time roller skate keys, they were across from the Odd Fellows Home.
