This advertising postcard, probably from sometime shortly after the end of World War 2, features a great view of the Wilson Six Horse Hitch of Clydesdale Horses about 55 or 60 years ago.

An advertising post card for Wilson & Co., meat packers. Text on the front says in part that during the war the horses were credited with selling 15 million dollars in war bonds. Text on the back side lists various brand names sold by Wilson - Tender Made Ham, Certified Ham and Bacon, Certified Sausage, Laurel Pure Lard, Certified Canned Meats, B-V, Advance Shortening, Bake-Rite, Mor, Certified & Clearbrook Dairy & Poultry Products, Certified Fresh Meats, Ideal Dog Food and Wilson Sports Equipment.
