Scope and content
Copy of customer's print. This display on the back of a truck urgently implored potential customers to purchase products made of alder timber, readily available in Washington state. This would help the state's economy by keeping residents' money in-state. Buffelen Lumber & Mfg. Co. advised that they would "show you here how valuable it is." Hardwood doors, veneer and panels could all be made from alder. Photograph ordered on March 8, 1979, by Paxport Mills of Tacoma. The original Boland photograph was probably taken sometime in the 1920's. Boland - B3037
