Illustrated Catalogue of Carriages and Special Business Advertiser

Exact facsimile of 226 deluxe carriage catalogue of 1860, rescued by dover press in 1970. Each basic carriage type could be ordered plain or showy, with or without tops, with special axles and wheels, and in a variety of ornamental trims to suit every taste. Alas, few of tese charming but entirely functional carriages still exsist, and for this reason alone the Catalogue forms a uniquely valuable source-book for examples of the craft now almost forgotten."
