Above, James Gunnell proudly assisted by his son to demonstrate the art of blacksmithing at Antiques on the Square in Bedford, PA .  Cranking the blower was James’ first job when he helped his father.  This weekend Come see One of the Top 10 Main Streets in America!  Antietam Iron Works will be there demonstrating our historic craft.  There’s music, food, and great antiques.  See more photos below of our fun from last year.
