1919- Seattle, Washington. Stacks of lumber drying at the Seattle Cedar Lumber Manufacturing Company's mill in Ballard. Located just west of the Ballard Bridge, it was the largest in Ballard. At the mill, logs were cut into lumber which was then dried for at least nine months before being sold. The stacks of drying lumber were over 50 feet high. In this photo, a workman stands partway up one of the tall stacks of drying lumber. More stunning photos of lumberjacks who fell giant trees
