Salem's Bank Museum Holds Forgotten Treasures
Banking History
The U.S. Bank in downtown Salem keeps a nod to old ways of doing things with a store of old bank equipment.
From a century-old safe – still in use – to decades-old adding machines and bank equipment, the museum-in-progress keeps artifacts from bygone eras of banking.
Low on the technology scale, some of the old machines’ complicated systems of levers would probably stump most MBAs.
The bank is on the corner of Commerce and State streets.
