Paul Bunyan Lumber

Calvin Lavell Sharp was the first to come to California, falling in love with the logging town of Westwood, Lassen County. Ralph Franklin Sharpe came out as soon as he could- 1932.

Both brothers worked for the Paul Bunyan Lumber Company and Red River Lumber Company. Ralph kept a photo album with surprisingly well preserved images (it was probably rarely opened) a few of which are shown here. Higher resolution copies are available, plus more...

The man in the middle is Ralph Sharpe. P.B.L.Co trucks. 1930's. The Red River Company's Diesel Locomotive and Logging Train
