PURPLE DYE MAKERS Back in ancient times, the hue of the royals was made by crushing thousands of snails, extracting their glands, and then heating the material being dyed in a pot full of brine for 10 days in an incredibly odorous process! DRIPPING MEN A dripping man back in Victorian England would go to homes and businesses to collect their fat drippings to sell to the public. CHILDBED LINEN WAREHOUSE KEEPERS According to an 1842 book of trades, a job involved supplying, collecting, and cleaning bed linens specifically used for birth. HONEY DIPPERS, TOSHERS, AND PUREFINDERS Honey dippers collected waste from homes, toshers scavenged sewers for valuable items to sell, and purefinders collected dog poop (to be used in the process of tanning leathers).
