Default #80 Charles Parker Coffee Grinder

Saw this today at the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum. It was apparently mounted on the sides of wagons.

The label says a "Chuck Wagon". Well, that makes sense.

"Hey Wishbone, that coffee ready yet?"

In my experience the only difference between a chuck wagon and any other wagon here in Texas is what you were hauling in it.

I have seen Charlie Goodnights wagon and it looks just like our family 's old corn wagon.
