1943ref. 213381943. Anthracite coal mining photographs circa 1930s to 1950s document the daily labor conditions environmental hazards and union activity within Pennsylvania's coal industry and provide direct visual evidence of industrial work in one of the most significant energy sectors in the United States. Created during a period when anthracite coal production remained central to regional economies and national energy supply these images record both above ground and subterranean labor processes as well as the collective organization of workers responding to unsafe conditions and economic pressures. The archive supports research into labor history industrial practices occupational health and union movements in mid twentieth century America. Eleven silver gelatin photographs ranging approximately from 4 x 6 inches to 8 x 10 inches some with typed captions attached depicting mining activity and related scenes in Pennsylvania's anthracite region. Images include miners traversing severe winter conditions while guiding donkeys hauling coal carts through heavy snow; workers shoveling coal in enclosed dimly lit environments with airborne dust visible in the light captioned "Coal shoveling brigade or how I spent my summer vacation"; and inspection scenes in which workers examine coal samples prior to distribution. Additional photographs show large scale coal piles dwarfing individual laborers emphasizing production scale. One press photograph dated January 15 1943 documents a mass meeting in Hazleton Pennsylvania where union leader Andrew Yevchak addresses striking miners with caption noting that 17000 workers were ordered to return to work following the gathering. Produced during a period marked by ongoing labor disputes mechanization and heightened awareness of occupational hazards such as coal dust inhalation these photographs capture both the physical demands of mining and the organizational structures that shaped worker response. The inclusion of the 1943 Hazleton meeting situates the archive within broader wartime labor tensions when coal production was critical to the war effort and strikes carried national implications. Together the images provide a grounded record of industrial labor environmental exposure and collective action within the anthracite coal industry preserving visual documentation of work that was both economically essential and physically hazardous. Minor edge wear and light creasing to a few prints with strong image clarity overall; condition very good. unknown

1900ref. 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

1856ref. 43932Keokuk: J. B. Howell & Company Printers 1856. 1856. IOWA. First edition. 8vo. Original salmon-colored printed wrappers 11 pp. A rare promotional and description of a town that was never built in the Des Moines Valley in Iowa. To be located on the Des Moines River thirty miles above Keokuk Lawrence was meant to be to Keokuk "what Lowell and Lawrence of Massachusetts are to Boston and it is believed that the natural advantages are such as to relieve this design of even the appearance of extravagance." The text points out the need for manufacturing companies to take advantage of the growing population of the region as well as natural resources such as coal and other mineral deposits. The water power provided by the river would be harnessed by a proposed dam and lock system. The final page contains a description of the Lawrence Coal Company leading some to conclude they may have been behind the publication of this pamphlet. The town was apparently never built. Moffit located only the copy at the Library of Congress and the American Imprints Inventory for Iowa added only the Boston Public Library and Wisconsin Historical Society. OCLC adds Yale Grinnell College the Newberry Library and the DeGolyer Library. Americana Exchange lists a copy offered by Goodspeeds in 1966 and none before or since. Rare. An old water stain to the lower one third of the covers and each page else a very good copy of a rare document. J. B. Howell & Company, Printers, 1856. unknown

1900ref. WRCAM55644N.p. most likely in Illinois or Indiana: Chicago Architectural Photographing Company 1900. Seventeen large-format black-and-white photographs backed on linen each 7 1/2 x 9 1/2 inches. Oblong quarto. Contemporary black textured cloth. Minor soiling and wear. Images a bit dust-soiled. Very good. An impactful and informative collection of photographs documenting the process of coal extraction from inside a shaft mine to the loading of the railway cars. The album includes exterior views of a few different mines with prominent headframes; the first image is titled "Mine No. 3" in the negative. This image also features an early model automobile from the 1930s at the latest. Five images capture the underground workings of the miners as they chisel away large blocks of coal from a wall in a pinched claustrophobic setting. One image shows a hallway with a wood plank floor and walls supported with corrugated metal. This is followed by six views of the ground-level processing area where the coal is dumped onto large conveyor belts that load it into railway cars. In one of the exterior views a Rock Island railway car is prominent loaded with coal likely on its way to Chicago. The last two images - close-up top-down views of rail cars overflowing with coal - are from the New York Central Railroad. Six of the images carry a photographer's stamp reading "Chicago Architectural Photographing Company" in the negative. The company was founded in 1885 to meet the demand for architectural photography in the bustling post-fire building boom in Chicago. Their prolific photographic services were employed by architectural legends such as Adler & Sullivan Frank Lloyd Wright and Burnham & Root. In addition to a vast array of buildings and construction projects the company photographed various mining companies in Illinois and Indiana though it seems to have been a small part of their business. A handful of institutional collections include scattered holdings of mining photographs taken by the company but nothing as comprehensive as the present album. An important album of coal mining photographs that capture the cramped working conditions inside the mine in a visceral manner along with a peak into the process of how past generations transported one of the most important energy sources of the time.

1915ref. 13004Kanawha County WV 1915. 52 leaves with fifty-eight full-page professionally-produced sepia-toned photographs each with printed marginal captions and six informational plates most backed on linen. Oblong octavo 5 x 8 inches. Contemporary brown cloth. Front cover lacking spine and rear cover chipped and worn. Internally clean. Good condition. A fascinating annotated photograph album produced by the Lackawanna Coal and Lumber Company a prominent early-20th-century mining and lumber company highlighting its officers and the variety of its operations in West Virginia. The album begins with portraits of four of the company's mustachioed owners -- W.L. Connell J.K. Griffith Thomas J. Foster and William Griffith. The preponderance of the album focuses on the company's activities in various locations showing their Power House Coal Yard company store and more at Mucklow; large barge shipments on the Kanawha River; exterior scenes and shots inside the mine at Upper Town; the Power House and Tipple at Greenbrier; various scenes at Paint Creek including the Power House Tipple interior mine scenes including "Miners Working in Paint Creek Mine Using Electrically Driven Undercutter" their mule barn and Hickory Camp Power House; scenes around their Nuckolls Greencastle and Grosstown properties; scenes inside their Foster Mine; and much more. Other photographs picture the various trees the company turns into lumber some scenes around the company's Crescent Property lumber yard and a couple of their new sawmill. The album concludes with a half dozen informational plates akin to modern-day Power Point slides providing financial information on coal land values coal consumption coal production and details on anthracite and bituminous productivity. The album presents like a type of promotional brochure couching the Lackawanna Coal and Lumber Company as a vital and dynamic enterprise with numerous opportunities for potential investors. We could locate nothing like it in OCLC; the Hagley Museum holds a 1914 album of fifty photographs comprising an inspection trip to the Lackawanna Coal and Lumber Company and Highland Lumber Company which would be an excellent companion piece to the present album. unknown
