EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "LUMBER MILL, 1939" captures a poignant moment in American history. The image showcases the Mumby Lumber Mill in Malone, Washington State, as it is being dismantled after thirty-five years of operation. Taken by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in August 1939, this snapshot offers a glimpse into the impact of the Great Depression on rural communities. The scene depicts a once-thriving industry now succumbing to economic hardship. The mill stands tall against the backdrop of Grays Harbor County's lush landscape, its wooden structure weathered by time and wear. Surrounding it are stumps from felled trees – remnants of an era when logging was at its peak. Lange's lens captures not only physical decay but also hints at the poverty that plagued many during this period. The absence of workers or any signs of life emphasizes the mill's closure and adds to the overall sense of desolation. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how industries were affected by both economic downturns and government interventions such as Roosevelt's New Deal policies aimed at revitalizing America during this challenging time. It encapsulates an important chapter in Pacific Northwest history while inviting viewers to reflect on resilience amidst adversity. As we gaze upon this print today, let us remember those who labored within these walls and honor their contribution to shaping our nation's industrial heritage.
