One of the most interesting collections that the Society maintains is a great of collection of miniatures. The collection is both impressive and interesting. From a miniature of a street scene from Catonsville, to the wonderful replica model of the historic former home of Joseph Fusting, Homewood, the Society's collection is worth the time to come out and see. Adults and children alike will enjoy viewing this collection.

[Homewood Model]

The window in the background gives a perspective on the scale of the must-see Homewood dollhouse replica made by Jean Walsh, on display in the Townsend House.

[Miniature House]

This Victorian-style house, with miniature rooms, viewed from the glass top, is another great model that was created by Jean Walsh. This miniature is on display in the Pullen Museum.

This impressive miniature model, built by Richard Eitemiller, of the intersection of Frederick Road and Newburg Ave. is on display in the lower level of the Townsend House.

A view along the porch of the Homewood model makes you almost feel as though you're strolling the actual porch of Homewood.
