Summary

Description
English: Drawing of peeling bark for the tannery in Prattsville, New York during the 1840s, when it was the largest in the world. Text below the image read "Peeling, and piling hemlock bark, for Prattsville Tannery." It was partially obscured with the top half of the letters cut off, but I think that's what it said (piling could be wrong).
Français : Gravure représentant la coupe et l'écorcage d'arbres (Pruches dont l'écorce est particulièrement riche en tanins) pour en utiliser ce tain (tanin) pour la tannerie de Prattsville, dans les années 1840, quand elle a été la plus grande du monde. Le texte de la légende sous l'image est partiellement tronqué, mais il pourrait être "Ecorçage et empilage d'écorce de pruche, pour la tannerie de Prattsville"
