Title	Skating rink, Ice Palace, Leadville Colo.
Creator(s)	Mazzulla, Fred.
Summary	Interior view of Leadville, Colorado's Ice Palace skating rink, built for the 1896 Winter Crystal Carnival. Cobble & Kerr built the 80 x 190 foot rink which was designed by architect C.E. Joy. The trussed roof, ice arches along the edge and umbrella-shaped chandeliers, which hang fourteen feet above the ice and have globes with multi-colored electric lights, can all be seen in the empty rink. An elevated stage platform enclosed by glass panels is between the arches and was built for orchestras and bands that played for skaters in the rink and dancers in the adjoining ballroom. A ladder provides access to the stage and a small wooden chair shows on the right next to ice pillar.
