Lumber City, GA, May 23 1907

(Telfair County)

Lumber City survives today, and is another one of those tough river towns, albeit with friendly folk. The town's namesake, lumber, is still in good supply in this area at the confluence of the Ocmulgee and Oconee Rivers, but much of the preparation and finishing has moved on. The greeting on this souvenir postcard is quite humorous..."Lumber City is rather dull now as all the bars are closed.."
