Exhibit 2 -
Moonshine Still
The moonshine still in the Tinsley Museum is the
actual still used in the creation of the cover photo for the July
1956 State magazine. The "still" was set up on Half-way Shelf of
Bowen Mill Shoals on Toxaway Creek in Transylvania County. The
exhibit provides a close-up view of the actual parts of a working
still. A list of terms used by a still operator is also
provided.
