Rosenberg's Great East India Horse Invigorator is a c1861 printed piece that promotes a tonic for horses, marketed under a name that suggests an exotic overseas remedy. Around the Civil War, horses pulled the streetcars, delivery wagons, and cavalry that much of American life depended on, so makers of livestock medicines advertised heavily with eye-catching prints and handbills. The library's record links the piece to the name Sarony, but that attribution is unverified, so the maker and exact purpose of the print are worth checking against other sources.
