Dorchester Illustration no. 2275 James McIntosh, Harness Maker
Illustration from 1868 Business Directory for James McIntosh, Harness Maker and Carriage Trimmer. Located at Glover’s Corner, this business carried all sorts of items related to horses and harnesses. it took a lot more work to keep horse and harness in good repair than what we do today for our automobiles. Most of us are satisfied if we take our cars through a car-wash once a week or so.
