Scarce 1870s carte de visite photograph depicting an early agricultural machine manufactured by Marshall, Sons & Co. of Gainsborough. The image shows a mobile combined thrashing machine with visible belts, pulleys, and feed mechanisms, parked in a dirt lot near a tented display—likely taken at a county fair or industrial exhibition.
The verso is boldly printed in red by the manufacturer: Marshall, Sons & Co., Limited, Britannia Iron Works, Gainsborough. Lists their full product line including portable steam engines, vertical and horizontal fixed engines, grinding mills, sawing machinery, and the combined thrashing machines they were best known for.
The company highlights medals won at Paris 1867, Doncaster 1865, and Bury 1867. A striking and detailed image of a key piece of 19th-century agricultural engineering from one of Britain’s most influential rural manufacturers.
