POSTCARD

Notation: A typewritten note on the reverse side reads: "Sept. 27, 1917. SS. Tonopah towing a barge of freight up Schist L. This was my first trip to the mine with our party, The Gov. etc. Schist Lake is full of the islands shown. - Elmer" Presumably, this note may have been typed on the typewriter shown in the image of the interior of the Mandy Mine Co's office.)



** This image is from a collection of 31 postcards that I acquired from an original set of 37. They were primarily private postcards (not commercially-produced) focused on the operations and personnel involved with the development & operation of the Mandy Mine on Schist Lake in Northern Manitoba from the early fall of 1917 through to the spring of 1918.
