La Moille Illinois J. H. Ough Harness Storefront And Chautauqua Posters Real Photo Postcard

This postcard captures J.H. Ough, likely the proprietor, in front of his harness shop in Lamoille, Illinois. The store, marked with a distinctive serrated sign, served as a vital local business providing equipment for horse-drawn transportation and agricultural needs, a common sight in rural American towns during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The visible harnesses and straps hanging outside confirm its specialized trade.
