Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the facilities of a tin mine along bottom edge of a canyon in Santa Ana, ca.1900. A complex of building built from wooden planks are pictured from a distance at center, smoke billowing from a large stovepipe on the right of the centermost building. Just behind this, what appears to be a very small water tower can be seen. The face of the canyon wall fills the background.
