This page holds links to items in my collection that I have scanned and shared here for the world to see as I think it's important to show this items and not just keep them to my self. :-)

It mostly consist of old postcard folders, but you also find more booklet types and even small books in here, and it will be expanded from time to time depending on various factors like my time and the space left on this site. :-)

In addition to the links below I also start to have some PDF files that I want to share with you, they can be found here/below the other linked items.

PDF- Electricity in the Mines at Cripple Creek (1,01MB)

This is an 15 page long article from the September 1899 issue of Engineering Magazine (page 953-967), talking about the use of electricity for the mines in the District. Quite an interesting article I think.

PDF- Headframes Cripple Creek (746KB)

This is an article from Engineering & Mining Journal issue of 7th march 1903 - and as name indicates, it deals a little with some of the headframes in the Cripple Creek District - including some nice drawings that I was happy to get my hands on. J

PDF-Leasing & Low-grade Milling (780KB)

This is an 4 page long article from the Mining & Scientific Press issue of 23rd August 1913 (page 297-300) and is talking about how Leasing and Low-Grade Milling has been working at Cripple Creek.

PDF- Map 1902 Mines & Mills Cripple Creek (808KB)

This is a scanned old topographic map that I've put into a PDF file so it could become a searchable map and hence make it a little easier for me to locate mines without messing up my paper copy.
Due to limited space the copy here is of much lesser quality then my own version.
You need to use the search button in Acrobat Reader to either search on numbers found on this page - or try names and see if they might be found on the left side of the pdf file, and then use the number listed to be found on the map it self.
I wish I could make it better, but alas, I can't. L (If you know a way, please let me know at the address below)
