Title on Image:
National Plant of U.S. Reduction and Refining Company
Photographer [Date]:
Unknown
Description:
This view across what appears to be prairie land at the structures making up the National Mill located about half a mile southwest of Florence, is said to be along the Coal Creek branch of the D. R.G. Ry.
I think the direction of this view is in a southeasterly direction. This mill was one of three mills, or four processing plants, as there was also a smelter in this area, southwest of Florence. This mill was along the main-line of the Coal Creek branch, while the other two mills, and the smelter was on a branch from the branch-line so to speak, and somewhat closer to Florence. In 1903 this plants belongs to the United States Reduction & Refining Co.
I did procure the colored version of the image. Source was 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.
