Time Cards

The original metal sign over the porticos.

My favorite shot of 2011; a rusty mold for a heart-shaped glass candy dish in its natural environment, so to speak.

Disabled forklift… I think it’s a Clark.

Artifacts from the days this was a furniture factory and warehouse.

Scrappers infamously gutted the factory, but this one green conduit going from the sintering floor all the way to ground level seems to have been spared.

I wonder how sheltered workers on this mid-level catwalk that follows the ore chutes is in storms. Note the chunks of concrete stuck in the catwalk grates–the pockets (right) are falling apart.

Much of the circa-1950s buildings remain with few alterations, such as these long boring sheet metal ruststicks.

Different doors for different vehicles, I would guess. White Pine Mine used tire-based vehicles, rather than track-based, making it pretty different than other mines I’ve been to.

The floor IS the machine…
