Men Gathering Firewood in Forest — Clip Details

NEW YORK USA-1938: A man in a light-colored coat and hat bends over a smoky fire in a wooded area, placing a white object into the flames. The scene shifts to a balding man in a button-up shirt holding a stick, then interacting with a younger man in a cap. The group works together in a forest, gathering and arranging firewood. Shot on 8mm film, this grainy black-and-white footage captures a quiet, rustic moment of outdoor activity, evoking a sense of historical nostalgia and simple rural life.
