Descripción
Wood from Picea rubens, native to North America. It was a major source of lumber for building construction in the 18th and 19th centuries. It was also used for piano sounding boards and for pulpwood. This tree was almost lost to overharvesting, but was protected by a government act in 1911 which purchased considerable land for national forests.
