Trip to Appalachia

On our class trip to the Museum of Appalachia, I decided to focus on metal objects. The metal object that stood out to me the most is the object in the picture shown below. I liked the shape of the jail cell, and thought it was very interesting that this is what prisoners basically lived in when they were in prison. Basically a metal box, with wooden floors, and no comfortable mattresses. Today's prison cells, as we know, are much different now than they used to be. 

the picture above shows two jail cells at the museum of Appalachia.
