Marshfield Sun Printing Museum Starts Summer with New Exhibits
The Marshfield Sun Printing Museum opens it doors for the 2010 summer with something new: an interesting visual display of the history of printing featuring dozens of vivid, full color images of antique and historic presses. These images are being displayed for the first time because of recent building improvements that were funded by the Coquille Tribal Community Fund. Volunteers are always on hand during Museum open hours to interpret and demonstrate the Marshfield Sun’s presses and other printing equipment, as well as to answer questions bout the Museum’s exhibits on printing and office technology, and on local history. The Marshfield Sun Printing Museum’s regular summer hours begin the day after Memorial Day: 1pm – 4pm Tuesday through Saturday; Memorial Day to Labor Day. Admission is free. The Marshfield Sun Printing Museum is a unique printing museum located at the north end of Front Street on Coos Bay’s historic waterfront. The Marshfield Sun was a working newspaper office and print shop from 1891 to 1944—and is today essentially as it was left in 1944, with additional exhibits upstairs and on the walls.
