ca. 1950. Portrait of lumberman Ben Cheney, ca. 1950. Mr. Cheney is wearing a snappy fedora and what appears to be a houndstooth check single-breasted suit. The symbol of his company, Cheney Lumber, appears in the upper left hand corner of the photograph. The company had become well known for the manufacture of Cheney Studs building material. The Cheney Studs logo also appeared on many of the uniforms of the youth sports teams that Ben Cheney sponsored.
