Hello everyone. We have found the wagon. Check it out! It is sweet. Built in 1939, it was used to deliver produce in Brooklyn and Philadelphia, but has been sitting in a barn for several years. We want to return it to service, and Don will look very handsome pulling this around town. It is in Philadelphia. Please spread the word and help us return horsedrawn delivery to midcoast Maine.
