EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 20th century in Bellingham, Washington. It showcases a rugged lumberjack with an early chainsaw, providing a glimpse into the evolving logging industry of that time. The motorized and portable drag saw he wields represents a significant advancement in technology for lumbermen. The image captures the essence of hard work and danger as we witness the immense power of this gas-powered chainsaw cutting through a massive tree trunk. The photographer's timing is impeccable, capturing the moment when the blade emerges from the top of the log, showcasing both its efficiency and potential hazards. Surrounded by fellow workers in their traditional attire, this photograph offers insight into employment practices within North America's timber industry during this era. The monochromatic composition adds depth to our understanding of historical logging practices while emphasizing the grit and determination required by these lumberjacks. As we gaze upon this vintage image, we are transported to an era where men like him played vital roles in shaping communities through their laborious efforts. This photograph serves as a testament to their contribution towards building materials essential for architecture and development across Washington state.
