Scrimshaw by Nantucketers
The scrimshaw collection of the NHA is unique among major collections, because so many of our works relate to this special place. This week, Meet the Collection strolls through our catalog of whale's teeth decorated by Nantucketers. Aficionados will be familiar with Burdett and Myrick, Nantucketers both, but what about Starbuck, Coffin and Chinery? Take a look! Hosted by Nantucket Historical Association Curator Dan Elias.
