Description
Photograph of dump truck offloading, showing group of workers nearby, [s.d.]. At center, a small dump truck with a single driver can be seen. The bin of the truck is at a steep angle, and its contents are being dumped into the large pit at left. Along the edge of the pit, a group of six workers can be seen. Four of the workers hold rakes. Two additional men can be seen behind the bin of the dump truck, while another man is visible to the far right. Rubble litters the foreground, and two small piles of flat stones stands at center. Large structures can be seen in the background at center and at left. A sign at left reads: "Hammond Lumber Co.".
