VERY vintage Studebaker

I just got this off the Recreational Equine Driving list and had to share! I do hope you all enjoy it as much as I did.

1880's Studebaker delivery wagon:

That must be an early sedan delivery

Looks like a pickup to me

Just not enough horsepower for me.

That was a beautiful team of horses. In its day that rig must have made the driver proud.

Can anyone blow up the image and see what he was selling for 10 cents? Sorta looks like Bromo Seltzer to me!

It is Bromo Seltzer, Brad. Good eye. Here's a link to the pic for sale on ebay--the image is a bit larger:

I really like the wagon, but the horses don't seem right for draft horses. They look more like harness horses, which would never be used to pull a heavy load. Probably a staged pic using the smaller horses to make the wagon look larger maybe? Just my two cents.

They're not draft horses, but that rig is not as big and heavy as something like a beer wagon. Those horses look capable of moving that size wagon unless it was overloaded.

Actually the horses in the picture are draft horses. They're Percherons. Not all Draft horses are over seventeen hands. Most actually aren't.

Here's two more.
