One sepia-toned photograph of workmen constructing the keel supports for the cargo ship, LAKE WINOOSKI (Hull #132), at the Saginaw Ship Building Company yard in Bay City, Michigan. The photo shows a view along the line of supports with equipment and supplies seen at the left side of the photo. Workmen can be seen in the center and right background areas near the shoreline of the Saginaw River. A dipper dredge is moored at the right side of the photo and another is at work on the river in the far right background. Handwritten text in the lower right corner reads "Saginaw Ship Bldg. Co., Yd. #132, E.F.C. [Emergency Fleet Corporation] #411, 5/25/18."
