DescriptionA man wearing a cap and vest is driving an open wagon drawn by a horse on a dirt road with a frame commercial building in the background. A sign above the porch reads: "Gladwin & Howard / Furniture." Some of the other large frame buildings may be multiple-family residences. A small building immediately to the left of the store may be an outhouse. A concrete sidewalk is behind the wagon and in front of the buildings.
