Relic iron cup in good condition. Cup is complete with body, base and handle. The curled top rim has helped the cup to keep its shape. The bottom has been pushed in and is slightly creased causing the bottom to misshape some.

The iron surfaces are rusted with scattered rust bubbles throughout. The bottom has several holes of various sizes.

The handle is still in its proper position and firmly attached.

Item was recovered on Culp’s Hill.

This item was originally part of the Jennie Wade Museum which was a collection of Gettysburg battle related relics housed in the small brick house on East Cemetery Hill where Gettysburg civilian Jennie Wade was killed on July 3, 1863. This museum was opened in the 1920’s by former Gettysburg Mayor William G. Weaver. In the 1950’s the building and collection were sold to local businessman L. E. Smith who, along with Hollywood actor Cliff Arquette, ran a company called Gettysburg Tours, Inc.
