PHOTO: Ceramic at the Maritime Museum is one of the type displayed at European brothels during the 18th and 19th centuries; if the eyes were green, the brothel was open, red eyes meant the police were in the area, and the cat turned around meant the brother was closed.
Savannah is a city filled with museums to fit everyone’s taste. The Prohibit ion Museum, the only one of its kind in the nation, is fascinating for anyone who lived through the 13 years the nation tried to dictate morals. For anyone who lives in an area impacted by the era of bootleggers, revenuers, or speakeasies, their stories are still fascinating to hear and tell.
