Description
Photograph of Cecil and Clifford Burton holding a large gold and silver bar from the Tropico Hill ore, ca.1930. Cecil Burton stands on the right wearing a helmet with a light on it. His long sleeve, button-up shirt has a pen in the pocket while his pants and shoes are covered in dirt. He smokes a cigarette while holding the bar at waste-level with Clifford Burton on the right. Clifford also wears a button-up shirt with pens and papers inside the pockets, but also wears a hat and tucks his darkly-colored pants into his knee-high laved boots. A large truck is just behind them while an automobile sits next to a pole in the background on the right.
