1900réf. 235961900. African American coal mining photo archive depicting Black industrial labor from the turn of the century through the postwar era documenting the changing conditions of mine work while revealing the continuity of Black employment in one of America's most dangerous industries. Spanning approximately fifty years from an early albumen photograph made around the turn of the century to silver gelatin photographs of the 1940s and 1950s the group records successive generations of miners whose labor fueled the nation's railroads steel production and wartime industries. By 1900 more than 180000 African Americans worked in mining and related extractive industries particularly across Appalachia and the industrial Midwest where operators frequently recruited Black labor during strikes while maintaining segregated workforces and company towns. Photo archive of 10 photographs including one large albumen print and nine silver gelatin photographs ranging from approximately 3 x 5 to 9 x 14 inches United States circa 1900s through the 1950s. The photographs show Black miners posed beside coal cars loaded with freshly mined coal; mixed Black and white work crews standing before steam powered mining equipment; African American workers operating within large industrial preparation plants beneath towering conveyors and ore bins; foundry and furnace interiors where molten metal is poured from massive ladles; miners gathered for formal group portraits outside industrial buildings; and workers posing beside hoists rail equipment and mechanical machinery. One of the largest photographs records a substantial interracial work crew surrounding a coal car marked with capacity information while another documents a line of African American workers walking through a commercial district following their shift preserving the contrast between industrial labor and urban life. Later photographs depict Black workers operating heavy electrical or mechanical equipment and standing inside modernized industrial facilities illustrating the technological transformation of mining and processing across the first half of the twentieth century. Coal mining became one of the largest employers of African American industrial labor following Reconstruction as southern and Appalachian operators recruited Black workers into mines expanding to meet the demands of railroads steel mills and urban growth. During both World Wars Black miners became indispensable to national coal production even while remaining concentrated in the most dangerous occupations and frequently excluded from skilled positions promotion and union representation until the growing influence of the United Mine Workers and the broader civil rights movement began to erode formal segregation after the Second World War. The chronological span of this archive distinguishes it from single period mining groups by tracing the persistence of Black industrial labor from the era of mule drawn coal cars and steam powered extraction to mechanized postwar production. Light surface wear scattered creasing and occasional edge chipping; the large albumen print shows moderate age toning. Overall in very good condition. A concentrated visual record of African American labor sustaining the American coal industry across five decades of industrial and social change. unknown

Historically interesting original document illustrating legal negotiations regarding early coal mining in Nicola Valley B.C. By the late 1890s Nicola Valley housed one of the northwest's largest and most extensive coal fields. The exceptional quality of deposits along the Coldwater River attracted significant attention sparking a surge in coal mining activity. The coal boom continued until the 1930s when depleted coal seams eventually took their toll on the local mining industry. The agreement was made between James Corbett Joseph Castillon George Murray of Nicola Lake B.C. the first party and Soren Andrew Hartman of Tacoma Washington the second party on 19 December 1903. The document authorized the transfer of licenses for six coal locations along Coldwater River from the first party to the second. It also enabled the formation of a new coal production company for these prospects with a capital stock of 2000000 shares each priced at ten cents. The agreement was signed by the members of the parties and a witness “Jas.” S. Andrew Hartman 1851-1910 of the second party was a retired wholesale merchant and the vice-president of Western Coal & Iron Co. of Portland Oregon. In May 1904 a few months after this legal deed Hartman established the Nicola Coal & Coke Company with a capitalization of $2000000. By 1905 an extensive advertisement in the Boston Globe sought investments boasting the company's possession of 3840 acres of coal lands and a treasury balance of $1000000. The company lasted relatively successfully until the early-1910s when it was dissolved after Hartman's death. Overall historically interesting legal agreement from the early days of the Nicola Valley B.C. coal mining industry. Excerpts from the document: “Agreement made and entered into this nineteenth day of December 1903 by and between James Corbett Joseph Castillon and George Murray of Nicola Lake B.C. of the first part and S.
