Notes
Formerly F10519.; Penciled on back of photoprint: "The house to the right was the Berry home and still stands - 1956. The one in the center was the Superintendent's home and was completely furnished with Sheraton furniture. The building is gone - and so is the furniture. When the mines shut down the Supt. walked out and shut the door, leaving it as it was. The furniture disappeared piece by piece. The building on the left was the mess hall, and part of it is still standing. (1956)."; Title supplied by cataloger.; R7100134973
