Loggers at Lunch
Abstract
This image captures what most would assume to be a common sight in Humboldt County around the time of frenzied logging. While cookhouses provided a breakfast and dinner, lunch was usually forsaken or packed from home. Notice the thermos and the lunch pails - all indicative of the second half of the Logging wave.
