Title

J. P. Gardner blacksmith shop

Description

Two men stand in a blacksmith shop. The mustached man standing akimbo wears dark pants, a dark shirt, and a leather apron, with a cap on his head. Another man has one foot up on a shelf or stool, wears a long apron over overalls and a light-colored shirt, and has a cap. Various tools are hanging on a table to the front of the image, and an anvil with a hammer resting on it stands in front of and between the men. The shop disappears into the background of the image, with studs holding up the ceiling, bare rafters overhead, and plank walls with bare studs. A sign with illegible writing is posted on one support, while posters are visible on the wall at the front of the image. Photo on cardstock, with handwritten label taped beneath.
