PH014_53-09 Gertrude Bass Warner photographs
Description
Hand tinted image. An outdoor candid portrait of a Soochow Creek (Wusong Jiang) filled with boats transporting lumber. All the boats appear to be made of wood and are of various sizes and designs. People are seen on the boats operating long oars. On the left side of the image is a tall cement wall lined with railing. Wooden utility poles and pedestrians walking can be seen in front of tall buildings. In the background people travel over a steel bridge identified as the Garden Bridge, which spans the creek. Known as the Garden Bridge in English, the bridge remains an important transportation channel in metropolitan Shanghai. A British company built the bridge nearly a century ago in 1907. Today in China few people know the English name of the bridge but it is well known by its native name: Waibadu Qiao.

Columbia River Log Raft ready for Ocean Voyage, Another raft under construction in background
Description
A colored photograph with the caption "Columbia River Log Raft ready for Ocean Voyage, Another raft under construction in background". In the foreground on the left side of the photo are log pilings and what looks like a water wheel or some sort of scaffolding on the side of a building. On the river and partly obscured by the pilings is a man in a rowboat. He seems to be regarding the cigar-shaped ocean-going log raft being pulled by a tugboat. There are chains holding the log raft together, running across the logs every few feet. White smoke or steam streams from the tug's smokestack. Another tug is approaching. To the right of the tugs is a log cradle where the rafts are formed. On the beach are what look like log buildings, with red roofs. At the far end of the buildings tall light-colored pilings are standing. Behind them and all along the shore is a lush forest.
