Abstract | This photograph was published in the La Crosse Tribune on September 21, 1964. The photograph's caption reads: "A 400 pound pie containing 12 bushels of apples was consumed Saturday in La Crescent by apple festival goers. Fest Queen Pat Wiemerslage is shown cutting the pie which was made by about 20 members of (illegible) La Crescent, as a fund-raising project. Boys began working on it at 9:30 p.m. Saturday and the charcoal-cooked pie was ready for eating at 8 a.m. Sunday. It took 3 1/2 hours to peel the apples."
