content: Black and white advertising print depicting a seven-story sugar refinery building behind a row of two and a half-story buildings on a city street. The building is the expanded Harrison & Newhall refinery, formerly the Penington Sugar Refinery, circa 1855 or 1856. A number of horse-drawn carts or drays carry barrels to and from the refinery at one end of the street while a traffic jam occurs at the other end. This image was included in the 1856 edition of Colton's Atlas of America, as an example of businesses in Pennsylvania.
