"R.C. Irving, Dealer in Cart, Van, & Harness Horses. 28 Caroline Street, Eaton Terrace, S.W.; Belgrave Yard, Halkin Place, S.W.; and Manresa Road, Trafalgar Sq., Chelsea, S.W."

A genuine antique trade card for a well-established horse dealer in London.
No date but there are clues: Telephone 118 Westminster. Telegraphic Address "Broughams, London.", and the London districts without a number - just 'S.W.' Numbers came in c.1914.

R.C. Irving was obviously a well-respected dealer. He contributed advice on page 281 of Horace's "Points of the Horse...." which was published in 1904.

Size: the card measures approx. 9cms x 6cms.
Condition: Acceptable, with pencil additions on the back. Please study my photographs.

Postage: £1.00 within the UK. £2.00 to Europe, £3.00 to USA etc.
