Two Sets of Oxen Shoes Collection circa 1840-1870
For your consideration are these two sets of oxen shoes, circa 1840-1870. Oxen teams were used to transport heavy freight to the growing west in 1840-1870. There are two sets in this collection. The shoes are mounted with information via a backing and are marked "Aug. 1080 PAT'N". The condition of these oxen shoes is good, with no obvious signs of damage or use; however, they do show oxidation consistent with their age. The measurements of these oxen shoes are 5" x 2 3/4" x 3/4" for each half of the shoe.
