"The Gold Regions. No. 20. Arrastre in Motion and Arrastre at Rest. Near Stirling, with snow-clad Mountain in the distance." Two early Arrastre's which were used to crush the ore from the mine. They were driven by a mule or oxen dragging a large rock (dragstone) around in circles over the ore which was spread out on a bed of flat stones. Publisher's label on reverse: E. & H. T. Anthony & Co. 501 Broadway, N.Y. Light contrast. Some soiling. Rare mining view. According to information found online, "Gold Regions" referred to Colorado. Is this a Colorado view?
