Here are some of the treasures that are inside the Casa Peralta:

One thing I forgot last week, there was this building on the property and I thought it was part of the property, turns out that it is another historic building of the area. The building is "The Little Brown Church", it was the Sunday School annex building for the First Presbyterian Church of San Leandro and was built in 1867. The church was torn down but this annex was saved and moved to the Casa Peralta property in 1979:
Hope you enjoyed the look around Casa Peralta.
These are wonderful photos you are sharing, the treadle sewing machine reminds me of all the time I spent next to my grandmother, sitting on the floor, going through her button drawer. The old dresser is wonderful, well shoot they all are.
