- History
- *UPDATE* IN 2010 NICOLE HEMBROFF, COLLECTIONS ASSISTANT, CONDUCTED A SURVEY OF PALLET RACKING. WHILE INQUIRING ABOUT P19683120000 (ALSO DONATED BY BUSCH), NICOLE ALSO GAINED MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE HISTORICAL CONTEXT OF THE CROCK. SEE BELOW. ACCORDING TO HANNAH VAN DER LEE (DAUGHTER OF ELLA BUSCH) IN 2010, THE CROCK CAME FROM THE FAMILY FARM OUT BY CHAMPION TOWARD VULCAN. THE FAMILY PURCHASED A TWO STORY HOME FILLED WITH ANTIQUES. MANY OF THE ANTIQUES, INCLUDING THE CROCK, WERE IMMEDITELY DONATED TO THE GALT.
