Description: This is a picture of the 'Rockaway Flagpole' a douglas fir tree that is also a 'coconut tree'. Burls are large, rounded outgrowths on the trunk or branches of a tree that form when the tree undergoes some form of stress, such as injury, fungus, or insect infestation. These burls can grow to significant sizes and are often prized for their unique and beautiful wood grain, making them valuable for woodworkers and artists. In the coastal regions of Oregon, the harsh weather conditions, such as strong winds and heavy rains, may have contributed to the development of these burls on local trees. Card condition: card has corner wear, some light surface marks, crease mark in upper left corner, note/address/stamp, cancelled in Rockaway in 1916.
