Description
Photograph of three men lowering a rowboat onto a trailer, [s.d.]. Two men, one at the stern, one at the the prow, steady it as a crane lowers it by a metal chain onto the four-wheeled trailer. The third man stands between them, stooping under the boat to reach for something. The man at the stern and the man under the boat both are barefoot. The man at the prow smokes a cigarette and wears a hat. A sign over a door a the extreme left of the image reads, "Extreme Danger! Keep Out", and another sign on a fence at the extreme right reads, "Public Must Keep Out".
