Mr.
and Mrs. G.O. Edwards Photographs, APA 671
This
picture taken from the Edwards Photographs depicts a W.M. Ritter lumber yard
from McClure, Virginia in 1937. The sawed lumber is sorted and stacked by type
of wood, dimensions of the boards, grade of wood, and date of sawing. Notice
the type of tracks in the picture... The set of tracks closest to the camera
is the sawmill's tracks, used to transport the sawed lumber from the sawmill
to the lumber yard, and some of the lumber yard's carts can be seen on the tracks
on the left hand side of the photograph. The second set of tracks are probably
the tracks that take the lumber to the railroad's loading area.
