Close-up view of a one-story log cabin identified as the first law office in Creede (Mineral County), Colorado. A sign on the low-pitched roof reads: "Office [of the] Creede News." Signs posted beside the door read: "Real Estate" "For Sale, Inquire Within" "For Sale, the Dakota Lode, a Fine Mine Right In Town" and "J.D. Miracle, Lawyer." A building under construction next to the log cabin has wooden scaffolding and framing around the door. Lumber piles and possibly a wagon are in the road.
