Monthly Market Fair

Image

Elevated view of farmer's wagons, teams, and pedestrian traffic crowd Princeton's main street for the monthly market fair. Some snow is on the ground and a few of the wagons have been mounted on runners. All of the horses are covered with blankets to keep them warm. Because horses were crucial to a farmer's livelihood, they required good care.
