Title on Image:
Electric Hoist at Wilson Claim, Free Coinage Company
Photographer [Date]:
Unknown
Description:
Source of image was not in good quality sadly, but it is what it is, I have worked with it as best as I could. This view is one such example of having to work with what I have. It shows an Electric Hoist in use in the District.
The source said this show the hoisting rig on the Carter lease of the Wilson claim of the Free Coinage company. The motor, which is of the General Electric type, is of 5 horsepower and operates a gear hoist made by the Denver Engineering Works, the depth being about 90 feet.
I did procure the colored version of this image as I think it is nicer. Source is gray-toned, or in common speech black & white. Used an online service and tweaked and worked with image to get what looks best to my eyes for the moment.
