Sending the ore to the Smelter house at the Ferris Haggarty Mine.
Update - 2009: Black & white print of the interior of a wooden wall & beamed ceiling room which has a very long conveyor belt with metal side rails which extends into the distance. A large metal unit shaped like an inverted Y is placed over the conveyor belt at mid center of image. There are tall panel windows on side left spaced at intervals down the long wall area extending into the distance. The floor is made of wooden planks & has small pebbles strewn about. There appears to be an open area between conveyor belt & floor. A small pile of gravel? is seen at center of image in this crevice.
Written on back in blue ink: Send the ore to the Smelter House at Encampment, Wyo Ferris Haggarty Mine Ore.
Good condition with heavy soiling on all edges, front & back side. Side left & side right edges of front curl upwards. Corners are worn with creases at top & bottom left. Side left has a slight tear at mid level. Slight crinkle in emulsion at top left.
There are 2 copies. Both good condition. 3 1/2 x 4 3/4" They both appear lighter than original.
Copy 1 has written on back in black ink: Send the ore to the Smelter House at Encampment, Wyo Ferris Haggarty Mine Ore. No visible flaws.
Copy 2 has no writing on back. There are a few tiny pinprick size dots in emulsion at top right.Collection
