I have no information about these photos other than that the envelope they're in has "Dad's mine" written on it in George Kallman's handwriting. No idea where this mine was or what they were mining.
A few of the photos are RPPC's, the majority small snapshots taken in 1937.
So step back in time and imagine what life was like at this mine. Were there people working it everyday or was it a weekend mining adventure? Imagine it at night in that little cabin with the birds in the trees settling down for the night and then arising the next morning singing. What a wondrous place it must have been for George and Gladys a children.
In a few of the photos I've put circles around photos of Alfred. In one I've put a circle around George, Alfred's son.
