Working Inside an Anthracite Coal Mine

An undated colorized photo post card view of the interior of an anthracite coal mine with men loading coal.

While the picture is generic, it could have been taken at any coal mining operation in the Pennsylvania anthracite field, including the one at Bear Gap near Lykens and Wiconisco, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania.
