Founded in 1915, the Southern Pine Association was a trade organization that engaged in extensive group marketing as well as in the development of standards and quality controls for the lumber industry. Early members "initiated the practice of forest management in the South. These pioneers, at first ridiculed for what was perceived as naive efforts, slowly led the Southern lumber industry to renewed vigor."They changed their name to Southern Forest Products Association in 1970. They are based in Metairie, Louisiana. FORN-SHELF-0658-BB-2406-HK1705
