The Middleton Place Privy House

The Middleton Place Privy House - An Archeological View of Nineteenth Century Plantation Life

I wish to thank Harvey S. Teal and George B. Hartness of Columbia, South Carolina; M. Mellanay Delham of Charlotte, North Carolina; Harmon Wray of Memphis, Tennessee; and Jan B. Eklund of the Smithsonian Museum for assistance with the artifact analysis. The original research was funded by a grant from the South Carolina Coastal Council. This publication was made possible by a grant from the South Carolina Committee for the Humanities, whose support is gratefully acknowledged. The Middleton Place Foundation, and its Director, Sarah Lytle, provided advice and encouragement. The author appreciates the assistance of the staff of the Institute of Archeology and Anthropology. Essential to the production of this book were Gordon Brown, Photographer; Darby Erd, Artist-Illustrator; Kenneth Pinson, Editorial Assistant; Mary Joyce Burns, Typist; Kenneth Lewis, Archeologist; and William Marquardt, Associate Director. The cover illustration and drawings on pages 1, 3, 27, 32, 47, 51, 54, and 56 are by Darby Erd. Figure 16 is taken from illustrations in Norman W. Webbers Collecting glass (Arco Publishing, New York, 1973) and Ruth Webb Lees Victorian glass (privately published, Northboro, Massachusetts, 1944). The drawing in Figure 24 is reproduced from a 1920 Armour & Co. sales catalogue made available by Harmon Wray of Memphis, Tennessee. The lamps in Figure 27 are drawn from catalogue illustrations in Edwardian shopping: a selection from the Army and Navy Stores catalogues, 1898-1913 (compiled by R. H. Langbridge, David and Charles, Newton Abbot, 1975) and Victorian shopping: a facsimile of the Harrods Stores 1895 issue of the vii price list (David and Charles, Newton Abbot, 1972). ......Buy Now (To Read More)
