Diamond Match Company history resources

Log piles along the Saco RiverIt looks as though the park planned for the former Diamond Match Company property is going through, which is so very exciting. We ended up creating a resource list for the planners to research the company, and Dora said why not share it? I agree, cause hey subject bibliographies are awesome.

The photo here is a detail view of log piles along the Saco River from a postcard. I’ve circled the guy standing up top so you can get a sense of the enormity of the piles. Dangerous work that was, no doubt about it.
