Transcription

Joe [Elliott] and I did . . . in 1992, we did the Huber Breaker for the Park Service. Joe did the interiors and I did the exteriors of the Huber Breaker, and then we switched around. And the Huber Breaker, and the Locust Summit Breaker, and the St. Nicholas Breaker are about the last three breakers left in the anthracite region. Big breakers, you know, there's some small ones still operating, but these are the big ones. They're vacant, and these are almost like the same monuments of the steel. They're almost like the headstones -- here lies the death of a great industry, of once-great industry. And they have all the machinery still, like up at St. Nicholas, and you could imagine the people that worked in St. Nicholas at one time, putting out all this coal, the noise, the water, the hustle and bustle. And now they're just silent, they're just monuments.

When the Mines Closed-Portraits

Description

Image: In the summer of 1993, historian Thomas Dublin began an oral history project in the Panther Valley, interviewing men and women who lived through the closing of area mines and garment factories. George Harvan provided helpful leads as the interviewing proceeded and eventually agreed to photograph interviewees and share historical photographs that helped place area residents' narratives within a broader context. The narratives and photographs appeared in 1998 as When the Mines Closed: Stories of Struggles in Hard Times, published by Cornell University Press.
