Description
Thy will be done, 2007. In the 19th century, graves weren't just made of marble or wood that had to be carved. They could also be found made out of zinc, or what was called white bronze and in many cases ordered by catalog from manufacturers across the country. You simply chose a design you liked, wrote a letter to the company along with the pertinent details of the person and they would ship the finished product out to the cemetery for installation. These are sometimes my favorite to photograph because as they're made of metal, the details never weather off over time.
