No visible corrections.
Numbered 5 in upper right corner.

Cranberrying: State 8, [between 1949 and 1951]

Cranberrying: State [8a], [between 1949 and 1951]
Unnumbered state. Details in the arms of the laborers indicate that it comes after State 6 (there is no State 7), while other elements suggest that it comes between State 8 and State 9---specifically, the foregrounded woman's basket of cranberries, the baskets behind her arms, and the arms of the middle pair of laborers.

Numbered 9 in upper right corner.
