Have been reading and really enjoying this thread for a while now. Thought I would contribute in a small way with a photo of my great-grandfather. He is center of the 3 with the camera around his neck. I’ll have to double check with my grandmother to see what it was her father did for a living but I do know that she has mentioned he was quite an amateur photographer, so I’m hoping I can drum up some more of his job site photos from her in the future.

I like the guy on the left in this shot. With the cigarette dangling out of his lip, giving off the vibe that maybe he was the jokester of the group.

I agree, Dirt, Mr. Cigarette looks to be a bit of a rascal, though smartly dressed.  It also looks to be damp work, whatever they are doing.

Dowser. Nice low angle shot to add drama.

I've been to Montesano a few times. A fella there has a private Victrola museum on his property. Clothes and modes of transport have changed there since that picture, but not much else.
My coat has nine buttons, but I always fascinate.
