Beer Wagon on Sherman Avenue
Image
Elevated view of a beer wagon pulled by two oxen standing on Sherman Avenue. A delivery man with a keg of beer on his shoulder is standing in the street near the wagon. The initials J.R. are on the wagon, which may belong to Madison Brewery, a beer company owned by John Rodermund. In the background is an iron fence, and behind it is a path, and trees on a lawn.
