Hauling Logs

 
Logs on their way to the Menasha Wooden Ware via a horse-drawn sled.  The company used an end mark which was, appropriately, the outline of a pail enclosing the capital letter "A."  Like cattle brands, these markings not only laid claim to who owned the logs, but also helped the drivers direct them to the proper mills once they reached the river.
