EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "TEXAS: PAPER MILL, 1939" takes us back to a significant era in American history. In the midst of the Great Depression, we witness a group of hardworking lumberjacks sawing logs for pine shingles at a paper mill near Jefferson, Texas. The image was skillfully captured by photographer Russell Lee in April 1939 as part of his documentation for the Farm Security Administration (FSA). The scene showcases the resilience and determination of these men during challenging times. With their sleeves rolled up and sweat glistening on their brows, they epitomize the spirit of early American industry. As they meticulously cut through each log, one can almost hear the rhythmic sound of saws echoing through the air. Lee's composition beautifully captures not only their physical labor but also hints at the vastness and grandeur of this bustling paper mill in its Southwestern setting. The towering stacks of lumber surrounding them serve as a reminder that this industry played an essential role in shaping both Texas' economy and its landscape. This photograph stands as a testament to how President Roosevelt's New Deal initiatives provided employment opportunities for countless workers across America during those difficult years. It is an invaluable historical document that allows us to reflect upon our nation's past while appreciating the dedication and craftsmanship exhibited by these unsung heroes who contributed to building America from its very foundations.
