Coal miners pose in front of brick and stone coke ovens at Tercio (Las Animas County), Colorado. Possibly Hispanic or Italian men wear overalls or work shirts and ragged slacks and caps. Wheelbarrows, shovels, a hose, and piles of stone are near oven openings. Smoke rises from ovens, and a Colorado & Southern freight car is beside the men on probably Colorado and Wyoming Railway tracks.
