This photograph, titled "Shaft No. 22" and "Shaft No. 19 Between Shifts", was taken by George P. Hall & Son before 1887. It depicts two separate views of mining shafts. The first image shows a large industrial structure with smoke billowing from the chimney, while the second view shows a group of miners gathered in front of a similar structure. The photographs capture the scale and intensity of mining operations, documenting a significant industry during the late 19th century.
