It be Humpday, It be triviola
Way back when, the Northern Commercial Company saw an increase in need for these. They modified them and became the first company to mass produce them. What are they?

I may try to answer this later today, but right now, my brain is mush.

Today's Humpday Answer
Dapper Dan knows his arctic transportation. The answer is a mushing sled.
During the gold rush, the Northern Commercial Company (NC Co.) developed a mass-produced sled that was sold to men and women heading north. It was similar to basket sleds except that the stanchions were cut off at the bed slats. There are no driving bows or brush bows on it. It was similar to the old American Flyer sleds that kids use these days. Instead of being held together with babiche, they were actually bolted together. Again, these were a mass-produced sled that could be assembled with a minimum amount of time.
Gary had it also.
