Print, Photographic

One black and white photograph showing Merritt-Chapman & Scott Corporation staff who are on their way to Point La Barbe near St. Ignace, Michigan, to begin preparatory work for the Lakehead Pipeline crossing of the Straits of Mackinac. The photo shows a "City Cab" parked on a snow-covered road with several men beside it who are holding shovels and rope. Evergreen trees are visible in the background. Handwritten pencil text on the verso reads "379-3, ML-3801, Party at Pt. La Barbe, Mich." An adjacent black ink date stamp shows "Feb. 16, 1953."
