The title, "To All Who Travel by the Horseshoe," reads like a direct appeal from a carrier to its passengers, and the "Horseshoe" in the name likely refers to a named route, line, or landmark. Lithograph advertisements like this were common in the late 1800s, when railroads, steamship companies, and stagecoach operators used inexpensive color stone printing to reach travelers at stations, hotels, and ticket offices. Pieces of this kind usually combined a slogan, a scene of the journey, and the company's name, so they document how transportation firms competed for riders and presented travel as comfortable and modern.
