Historic Reel of Longleaf Logging: Over 100 Years old

2 years ago
63

Join us in a look at the history of logging caught on film over 100 years ago! Part of the World War One efforts back home included the logging of longleaf pine forest. Enough to build 2,025 portable barracks in 60 days! Many of these practices and innovations in this footage can be seen in today's logging and milling industries. However, a lot has changed as well. Our Jeffrey Forbes narrates these marvelous clips from the original inter-titles.

This footage is from the National Archives. Titled Historical Film NO. 1001, created by Signal Corps, U.S. Army.
