'At Auchmithie 1881'. Girl with basket sitting on shore in front of boat
Originally uploaded by National Galleries of Scotland
The National Galleries of Scotland has made this photo of a young girl at the little fishing village of Auchmithie, Scotland available to the public with no known copyright restrictions. It is a good record of the early origin of what we think of as an Appalachian ribbed melon shaped basket . This photo documentation should be helpful to individuals creating a persona for living history reenactments.
