Unique, one of a kind mine record book from the Eshbaugh Brothers Coal Company of Mayport, PA. It contains weekly reports of mine conditions as required by Act of Assembly. of 6/9/1911. Actual records date from May 2, 1944 to November 19, 1953. It is assumed the mine closed at that time as there are numerous blank pages after the final entries. Many entries simply state the mine is in safe workable condition but there are also air measurements. A large book, it measures 16.75" x 11.25".
Vintage estate find, please see photos. In fair condition with stains on cover as well as pages. Cover is worn and has damage to spine, edges, corners, etc. Pages are currently still bound but must be handled with care. This was a working document and shows the wear associated. A unique find!
