Unloading Lumber, Saginaw, Mich. between 1900 and 1910: A Snapshot of Industrial Activity on the Saginaw River This photograph captures a moment in time during the early 1900s in Saginaw, Michigan, as lumber is being unloaded from a steamer boat onto the shore. The image, titled "Unloading Lumber, Saginaw, Mich. between 1900 and 1910. 'Langell Boys' on Freighter," offers a glimpse into the bustling lumber industry that once thrived in this region. The photograph was taken on the Saginaw River, a significant geographical feature that played a crucial role in the transportation of building materials during this period. The steam-powered boat, with its plume of black smoke billowing from the stack, is a testament to the industrial might of the era. The 'Langell Boys' referenced in the title can be seen in the foreground, working diligently to unload the lumber. Their presence adds a human element to the scene, reminding us of the labor-intensive nature of the lumber industry. The men, dressed in work clothes and hats, appear focused and determined as they move the heavy timbers from the boat to the lumberyard. This historic photograph, taken with a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, is a valuable addition to any collection of American industrial and historical imagery. It offers a unique perspective into the local industry, showcasing the importance of the lumber industry in Saginaw during the early 1900s. The image is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress, a testament to its historical significance.
