William Smith (fl. c. 1860 - 1891) was a lithographer active in Philadelphia during the second half of the 19th century. Smith first appears as a picture frame maker beginning in 1856. By 1860, Smith had changed professions and began publishing and distributing genre, historical, religious, and portrait lithographs and chromolithographs from his shop located at 706 South Third Street, which he moved just down the block to 702 South Third Street in 1863. He appears to have been unrelated to the 'Smith Brothers' (Benjamin Franklin Smith and borothers) publishers active in Philadelphia around the same time.
