Description

Sepia-toned image on card stock of a large crew of men with a threshing rig. In the foreground is the engine with a smokestack and wheels. A long belt stretches to the threshing equipment to the right and then over to another engine. Wheat stacks and cut stalks fills the ground throughout the image, and several wagons fills with straw and wheat as well as empty wagons are gathered around the threshing crew. One wagon loaded with a full load heads in from the farther reaches of the field. Several barrels stand around the engine in the foreground. Thick stands of pine trees fill the background of the image.
