Description
Photograph of the "largest steam shovel in the world" at the United Verde Mines in Arizona, [s.d.]. A large crane, that appears to be the size of a railroad car or small ranch-style house, is pictured just left of center, flush against a slope of rock. In the right foreground, a corrugated metal shack can be seen. The rest of the terrain is covered with rubble and debris.
