EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of traditional freight hauling in America during the early 1900s, as twenty mules work together in perfect harmony at High Point, North Carolina. The team, belonging to I.M. Lassiter, is shown in their determined stride, each animal adorned with a collar and yoke, as they pull heavy loads with unwavering strength and endurance. The scene transports us back in time, painting a vivid picture of a bygone era when mules were the backbone of transportation. The team's powerful muscles ripple as they move, their ears flicking back and forth, focused on the task at hand. The landscape around them is dotted with trees and rolling hills, adding to the serene and picturesque atmosphere. This image is a testament to the resilience and ingenuity of the American spirit, as well as the critical role animals played in the country's history. The photograph, estimated to be taken around 1908, is a precious piece of history that continues to inspire awe and admiration.
