This image shows a large bronze memorial to the lumbermen who worked the forests of northern lower Michigan more many decades, providing various wood products for the rapidly expanding towns and cities of the Great Lakes states.

The caption on the back states:
On the High Banks of the Au Sable River in the Huron National Forest in Michigan, stands the Lumberman’s Monument. The idea for a monument was conceived by a local lumberman who successfully headed a drive to raise the necessary $50,000, from among lumbermen through the State of Michigan. The purpose of the monument is to perpetuate the memory of the pioneer lumbermen of Michigan, through whose efforts was made possible the development of the Prairie States.

–One is struck not only by the size of the monument, but by the unusual fashion in pants and shoes worn by the woman in the foreground.

This card is dated 1955.
