This privy is wood, painted white and had a New Moon painted on the door. It is not cut into the wood, but painted on. The door itself is nailed shut so visitors to the park do not try to use it. The turn-board originally used to hold the door closed when not in use, was used as the locking piece when nailed shut.
"St. Charles County restored and rebuilt the house for educational purposes. The county used the original building plans and moved the house about 100 yards to prepare for possible future expansions of highway 40-61. The parks department received the 2007 McReynolds Award from the Missouri Alliance for Historic Preservation for its efforts in restoring the homestead" ~ Wikipedia
