"Under a spreading Chestnut tree, the village smithy stands. The smith a mighty man is he, with strong and sinewy hands.." (Longfellow)This old invoice takes us back to the days when a blacksmith shop was in almost every neighborhood. As can be seen by the invoice, James Thompson took over the blacksmith shop of Mr. Pancoast. I'm still looking for a Pancoast ad.
