Hanover & Manchester Stagecoach

 
Although this is not an early scene in New York State it typifies they type of public transportation that continued to exist for decades in regions untouched by railroads. Since this is a Daguerreotype the image is reversed. The lettering along the roof line says "Hanover and Manchester." Note the unusual three-horse hitch. Image courtesy of Josh Heller.
