Description
Photograph of a group of men standing next to two automobiles outside of what appears to be a mining warehouse, ca.1900. At center two automobiles are visible from behind, parked in front of a long one-story building made out of what appears to be wood. Four men stand next to each other and are visible from behind looking up at a second building. The second building is at least five stories tall and is visible to the right of the first building. Windows are visible on the side and front of the building. Behind the second building is a tall rocky mountain, and dirt and desert shrubs are visible throughout the foreground and background.
