Item 62: Draper Company horse with handler, 1903

 File — Box: 12, Folder: 3

Scope and Contents

Printed in 1974 from glass plate negative no.B62. Image depicts a Draper Company horse posed outside the same stone building seen in Item 50, in this folder. The horse is black (or dark colored); his rein is being held by a man on the left, wearing a white shirt and white pants. He holds his straw hat in his right hand, possibly to attract the horse's attention so the horse will pose with his head up. The man has a mustache but does not appear to be either of the two men seen in Item 50, in this folder, however, both this man and horse can also be seen in Item 59, in this folder. The horse is probably one of the horses owned by the Draper Company for pulling carts and wagons. The man could be a cart or wagon driver. Several residential buildings are visible in the background. 25.25 x 20.25 cm.
