| Abstract: | We have repeatedly pointed out, that utensils, odds and ends and ephemera, inherited from, or discarded by our forefathers, indirectly serve as clues to their ways of life, often neglected by historians. The endless variety of containers are now silent relics which once participated in the daily activities of other decades, now extinct, and must have vibrated to the voices around them, which we may long to hear again. |
