Description

Color photo postcard of a shack as seen through the ruins of a brick or adobe building. Mountains in distance. On reverse: The ghost town of Ballarat between Trona and Death Valley was filled with uproarious life at the turn of the century when it was the supply center for prospectors and miners. Since then some of the old buildings and shacks have served as homes for Seldom Seen Slim and others still search for ore in the Panamints. Photographer/distributor: Another Chris Card. #P53998. Stamped on reverse with "Sep. 6, 1972" and handwritten in blue ink "From Gotchy."
