SUMMARY:Coffin Craziness
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for Coffin Craziness presented by Michael Miller of the Enfield Historical Society.   \nIn the 1880s\, Thompsonville’s New England Glass Burial Case Company manufactured glass coffins.  Their products were not unique.  America’s inventors designed and sometimes successfully manufactured and sold a dizzying variety of devices for preserving your favorite family members for eternity (or at least until the funeral).  What better month than October to look at a few of those creative\, unusual\, sometimes practical\, and often bizarre inventions.  This program will have you thinking eewww\, gross\, that was disturbing\, and\, possibly\, I want one of those… \nThis presentation is open to the public.  Anyone with an interest in history is welcome to attend. \nThe Enfield Historical Society is an all-volunteer non-profit organization that has preserved and shared Enfield’s history for more than 60 years.  New members are always needed and greatly appreciated.  Everyone is welcome.  You don’t need to be a historian or Enfield native to join.  Become a member today!
