Title
English: Big log at North Bend Lumber and Sawmill, ca. 1913
Description
English:

In 1907, about 400 people lived in North Bend, Washington. Most were employed in logging or lumber milling. The lumber was shipped to market over a branch line of the Northern Pacific Railroad. The local shingle mill made most of the wooden pipe used in Seattle's Cedar River water supply line. This photographic postcard, postmarked April 1, 1913, shows cuts made in a large log at the North Bend Lumber Company.

Written on verso: [Message:] Dear Edith, We are fine & hope you folks the same. I hope you like your new home. I will write more next time. They have my house all torn up fixing it all over for me. 2 carpenters here but will be nice when they get through. With love. Original photographic print (postcard): ca. 1913. Copied in 1998 by the Museum of History and Industry.
