UPDATED VERSION AVAILABLE • Logging in Quebec 1934...
Logging in Quebec is original footage of a winter logging operation and spring log drive filmed in 1934 by Earle E. Shaw. The 16mm film was transferred to DVD by Northeast Historic Film, Bucksport, ME and is housed at the Raymond H. Folger Library at the University of Maine in Orono, ME.

His daughter Marjory Shaw Chase made a narration of the footage in 2014. We compiled the narration and some old still images with the minimally processed video footage to preserve it's original feel.

This video was narrated by a family member of mine who passed away in 2017. It's nice to come back every now and then to hear her voice. She was always a very good storyteller and had a lot of interesting things to say about the world "back in the day."

Very cool to see actual footage of this process. Beautiful narration. The man who took these films was a natural at videography, especially for the time. Thanks for sharing this:)

I lived in St Jovite station for 20 years, most of the houses are still there.

Great movie.....there were old logging camps above Montfort when I was a kid. I remember hiking up to them in the summer.

Nice old movie, we have a reel like that of tobacco farmers in the 50's. Nice to look back on the HARD times our parents and grandparents had. So grateful for there can and will do attitude.

I remember hearing about this from old guys when I was young. I'm 67 now. Hard dangerous work. Great to see how it was all done. One interesting detail I noticed was there were no heavy draft horses. They all looked like Morgan types.

NO not a Lombard, that's a 6 cylinder, 100 hp Waukesha powered Linn tractor built in Morris, NY at 14:55 In July, 1934 Canadian International would take delivery of a Cummins Diesel powered Linn as well.

I wonder how many teams of horses were injured or killed by those loads, we had ice chalks in our horses also and they used to slide and fall every once and while and we had no where near so much weight on the spreader.
