Scotia Iron Ore Mine, #2 of 2, c. 1915
Title:  Scotia Iron Ore Mine, #2 of 2, c. 1915
Description:  Stuart Postal Cards. No Postmark. Title: "Incline Plane at Scotia." Given the metal smoke stacks and the operator's shanty at the top of the incline, this photo was taken downhill from the previous one. Perhaps the derricks are related to petroleum production?
