Handwritten on back, "#7 Trunk first, the tree is carefully loaded on a 50-foot logging truck. Because of the tree's width, even with its big bottom branches bound to the trunk, it was necessary to raise it 3 feet on cradles above the truck's platforms to prevent the branches from scraping the ground."
