Description
Photograph of loggers and their truck-wagon, ca.1940. What seems to be a steam powered vehicle sits to the left of the dirt road. Three wagons carrying portions of large tree trunk are attached to the vehicle while one man sits on a stump in the center. Two men stand on the vehicle while horses and more men are visible behind the road on the right. The land in the foreground is covered in leaves, grass and parts of dissected tree stumps while the slant of a hill can be seen in the background.
