| Seven Hundred TwentyTwo in the Famous People (FP) Series - Ray and Pauline Cash |
 |
In the midst of the Great Depression, about 1935 Ray and Pauline Cash opened a roadside pottery stand on Highway 25, three miles north of Knoxville, Tennessee. It started as a rickety tarpcovered stall but the Cashes were able merchants and the business grew, first to a closed wooden structure and later to a brick building. They called it the "Cash Pottery Stand" and adopted the slogan, "Everybody Buys Here," with a logo of silhouettes streaming into a building.
When Foreman's Southern Pottery liquidated in 1957. The couple purchased its molds and took on many of its skilled women. They continued the tradition of painted stoneware, becoming known for decorative household ceramic items of all kinds. Eventually they renamed their operation the Cash Family Pottery -- by which it is best known today.
You can "Cash" in on this "cache" here in the Nubbin Cemetery by arriving at the posted coordinates, answering the question and then moving on to the final which is a preform soda bottle.
