Early Creighton area bedroom

Bedroom

This area highlights a brass bed, covered with a beautiful quilt made in 1929 by rural women west of Creighton. The room also contains a wash stand, pitcher and bowl, plus a man's old hair dippers, shaving brush and a black leather circular box with silver medallion on lid, used for stiff collars. An oak stand/dresser for a woman, is seen on one side of the bed. It holds an embroidered towel and silver brush, comb and other ladies' items. A small doll trunk, doll cradle and bed range from 50 years to over 100 years old. A rug was obtained from the former Park Hotel.
