In an era when horses played a vital role in transportation and agriculture, businesses like S W Gearing's were essential to keeping these noble animals healthy and well-shod. The detailed illustration on this trade card gives us a glimpse into the daily life of a blacksmith at work, hammer in hand amidst billowing clouds of steam.
