This is part of an interesting photo album on archive including pictures from Lake Tahoe and Santa Barbra, Catalina, and spots in Nevada during the gold rush. The photographer apparently ran a photography business in Goldfield. There are lots of photos of a fire where the town burned down along with several photos from when it was first established. The photos are mostly around 1900 but span from the 1890’s to 1940’s. It is basically someone’s life in more general events and places (not personal experiences) from the gold rush era. They were not great at photography, but not terrible and this makes an interesting view into a slice of real life at the time.

I feel like these two were partners in crime.
