 * Reason:Very superb looking image. This image says a thousand words about the men working in the mill, the log drivers who brought the wood to the mill, and this image is just a piece of American history of the pulp and paper industry that is slowly dyeing.

 * Oppose First, I would like to see proof of this photo's public domain status, As the high quality (no grain at all) lends me to believe it was made after 1923. Second, even for a subject which no longer exists, this is paltry quality. For 500x300 size, it should be a much more notable event pictured; I can't imagine there aren't more and better public domain photos of this subject.- Running On Brains (talk) 23:06, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy Close Fails size criteria. Dusty 777 23:12, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose Per Dusty. It is little more than a thumbnail. And the nominator is reading far more into the picture than is present. I see hardly any factory/mill, just a chimney and a bridge. Could be almost anywhere. Colin°Talk 07:14, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
