Abstract:
Old Salem Village is home to one of the largest coffee pots in the country. Made of extra thick and heavy tin, it is sixteen feet in circumference and almost that tall. The pot stands atop an eight foot iron pole. Wagons and cars have run into it, and city officials have condemned it, but it still survives. It was erected in 1858 by Julius Mickey to advertise his tin shop.
