| TURPENTINING IN THE SOUTH |
|
Throughout the South, many methods were used to collect pine resin for the Naval Stores Industry. The terra-cotta cup,
known as a Herty or Daisy Fluted cup was patented in 1903 and used in isolated turpentine camps of Florida, Georgia and South
Carolina. Workers in these camps developed a distinctive language, culture and economy. All of our Herty cups are originals,
not reproductions.
