“If
Walls Could Talk” visits the Shriver
House
Museum
The
very popular television show “If Walls Could Talk” which airs on HGTV
visited the
Shriver
House
Museum
for a full day of
filming. Their particular interest
focused on the many artifacts which were discovered during the restoration of
the Shriver’s home. They included “live”
Confederate cartridges left behind by the sharpshooters who occupied the
house during the Battle of Gettysburg, medical artifacts, photographs, and much
more. They also became very
interested in the Shriver story and the overall restoration project.
