Description: Tobacco wagon used to transport tobacco that had been harvested. Tobacco wagons were narrow and long so mules could pull them in between the rows of tobacco. Stakes and burlap sacks created the "walls" of the wagons to hold tobacco pulled from the plants. They also served as sleeping pads for farmers holding fire vigils at their barns overnight. A brief video describes how they were used. Date approximated.
