He's A Lumberjack and He's OK

I recently snagged this great photo postcard of a pair of lumberjacks, dating from around 1920 I would guess. Postcards showing people in their occupational clothing are not very unusual, and it's not particularly hard to find images of train conductors, police, etc. I like the confident look that these two have, they seem pretty self-assured.

Train Crew

I love real photo postcards of people at work. These photos are such a raw glimpse into how people made their living in the early 1900s. Granted, many of the photos are posed, but it is still easy to imagine these men maintaining the trains in the yard in Minnesota.
