Description

Photograph of the Hammond Lumber Company, ca.1930. A smokestack to the right of center spews out thick black smoke to the right while piles of wooden planks can be seen from left to right. The foreground is concrete land with what appears to be railroad tracks running from left to right. A tower made of wooden beams can be seen on the left while a water tower sits to the right of the smokestack. A sign that reads, "Hamond Lumber" can be seen over an archway on the right while telephone poles line the right side.
