McLaughlin Percherons of 1924


Another "Broadside" from years past.  The "broadside" was a printing usually on card stock weighted paper which was popular in the 18th and 19th centuries, produced by local printers.


Here we have an example of James B. McLaughlin's 1924 Percheron advertisement from The Annington Farm Co. located in Hagerstown, Maryland.  At one time, it seems Mr. McLaughlin had a healthy stud operation as he imported 68% of the prize winning stallions from France.
