Amazing circa 1905 images of this early western mining town. The very name evokes the perfect images, and these are near perfect.

Like something right out of Deadwood. Most of the photographs are by Titsworth with his cartouche on each. Edge chips on some, but images are gorgeous. Overall VG-EX. 8x10''.
