What do Wells Fargo, television shows of the 1950s and 1960s, and even McDonald's advertisements of the 1990s have in common? The answer is the uniquely American stagecoach or, to be more specific, the Concord Coach.The small Abbot-Downing Company of Concord, New Hampshire, had a profound effect on American history.However, at the company's peak in 1890, fewer than 300 workers were employed. Abbot-Downing has been out of business for most of this century, and the last coach was made about 1915, yet the vehicles endure in literature, advertising, and ubiquitous "westerns." The surviving coaches command respect and awe from viewers of any age.
