The Annual Exhibition of the Smithfield Club - Carting away a Pig, 1850. Agricultural show in London. 'The pigs are always a favourite description of stock to the amateur sightseers at cattle shows. A man that would readily admit his insufficiency to judge of the points of a sheep or an ox, will willingly volunteer an opinion as to the merits of the grunters'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
