My first memories of these were stone…possibly exposed aggregate…but I’m not sure. They were in the town (village?) where my grandparents had their summer home. We called their summer home “The Cottage”.
The highlight of any “trip into town” was getting a drink from one of these on the street corner.
We referred to them as “Bubblers”.
What do you say?
“Gurgler”?
“Gusher”?
Fountain?
Water Fountain?
This bubbler was on Jekyll Island in the Historic District – where there are lots of “Cottages”.
More on the “Cottages of Jekyll Island” tomorrow.
