Source of image was not a good quality sadly, but it is what it is, I have worked with it as best as I could. I scaled the cropped & colored view up a little. This image is the only ever view I have seen of this elusive mill. I first saw and bought the postcard this is from in January 2008, and till this day, June 15, 2023, I have not come across any other images of this mill, or even a better-looking postcard. The source card was a bluish print quality image on a postcard, advertising for Henry Sachs, Stocks and Bonds. View is taken looking down at the mill from, I presume, a location near the Lee Shaft of the Isabella Co., and I think it was through a adit/tunnel, as seen entering the open ore bin near center of the view. I did procure the colored version of this image as I think it is nicer. Source is bluish ink, 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.Isabella Mine and Mill, Cripple Creek, Colo. Owns About 120 Acres on Bull Hill. Mill Capacity, 450 Tons Daily. Cyanide Process Used.

        General notes:
        The Isabella Mines Company erected a 300-ton cyanide mill during fall of 1906 to treat the lower grade ores from their properties as well as from the dump, but the plant was only run experimentally in 1906.
