This is a different look from what I am used to see the Cresson Mine as, sadly it is sort of faded on the sides and not the sharpest view around, but still I was able to enhance it a little bit. Based on the whitish stuff hanging on the water-tank seen about 1/3 down from top and about 4/9 in from right-hand side, this is a winter-shot as I can't understand that whitish stuff as anything but ice! Raven Hill makes out the background, and once more I am stuck in what is the name of that mine having the Ore-House seen near top and just to the right of the Cresson Head-Frame… So, I went hunting and comparing various views and my ca. 1903 topographic map from USGS with many numbers linking to mines, I am pretty confident that this is the Mary L. Mine with its dump, Head-Frame and Ore-House seen in so many Cresson Mine views. And info I have also indicates that the Cresson Mine is located on the central block of the Mary L and Draper claims, making this scene most likely showing two claims on the same group of mines.

This is the 8th postcard I've seen (as of July 21, 2018) using the base image this is from, this is one of those editions where the text 1938 appears under the words 'Cresson Mine' in lower right. Raven Hill is in the background and sorry, no, I've yet to figure out what mine has that Ore-House seen near upper left, seen just above top of the Cresson Smokestack.

This photo is from the western slope of Bull Hill, looking towards south, southwest near the John A. Logan mine. Down in the valley on the right-hand side of this image is the Cresson Mine, while about center sideways and 1/3 up from bottom is the Head-frame of the Gold Sovereign Mine, with the ruins of the Trilby Mill/Mine further left and a piece of the Gold Sovereign Branch line off the High Line seen climbing the hill below a big dump from one of the Dante Mine shafts seen near left-hand side about 1/3 down from top. The hill seen about 1/3 in from right-hand side is Squaw Mountain, and on the slope down into Eclipse Gulch is seen the mine operation that I think would be the Carbonate Queen. Seen about middle top/down and about 1/4 in from right-hand side.
