This is sadly a bad quality print-based edition of this view from around 1896, showing the shaft house and structures at the King of Diamonds mine of the Lincoln mine group on Lincoln Hill, in the northern end of the District, northwest of Gillett. But still, it is the best I have, as it is the only one that I ever seen! The scene itself shows a man emptying an ore-car near left side, with a structure to the right that appears to have been built over time as the roof is different from left to right-hand side of the structure that makes up the shaft house of the King of Diamonds. In the foreground a supply of logs, and there appears to be a frame for a structure yet not finished at middle top/down on the right-hand side. Mountains in the background would be the Pike's Peak Range. I did procure the colored version of this image, if that is what you see. Source was dark grayish, or in common speech black & white. Used an online service and tweaked and worked with image to get what looks best to my eyes at the moment.THE LINCOLN MINES. King of Diamonds Shaft
