Hardware Store
Kentucky Library Broadside Collection #S1240
This small flier advertises the assorted wares available at George S. Norris’s hardware store in Henderson, Kentucky. Besides hardware, the operation also manufactured harnesses and collars for horses and sold seeds. Hardware stores also served as important social gathering spots for farmers who often visited the city only once a month.
Gift of Stella Pool, 2001
