Zinkers
Between 1870 and 1914, several United States companies maucafactured "white bronze" metal grave markers, known today as "zinkers" or "zinkies". Although they are uncommon in Jewish cemeteries, I have seen two in my explorations.
This zinker comemerates a woman who's name is illegible in this picture. A fun thing about zinkers is that they echo like a bell when you hit them! This grave is located in (I think) Old Mishkan Tefilah cemetery in West Roxbury, MA.
And the final zinker that I've seen has taken on the classic aged blue-ish hue that is distinctive to the zinkers. It comemerates, in Victorian grandeur, the life of young Henry Warshauer. This grave is located in the oldest Jewish cemetery in Massachusetts-Temple Ohabei Shalom in East Boston.
Keep an eye out for a zinker in your further explorations. They standout in color and in matte hue amongst granite and marble gravestones of most Jewish cemeteries. They are a fun treat for the seasoned zinker hunter!
