Offered here is an original 1884 three page letter written on District Court, Judicial District of Colorado, Durango Colorado letterhead. Letter written to a fellow in New York regarding the status of the Alma Mater Mine near Rico, Colorado. Letter quite descriptive regarding the condition of the mine from the Timbers to the Workings. Gist of letter is that the Alma Mater Mine is worth investing in. Great display piece of Durango and Rico mining history, written before the Rio Grande Southern Railroad narrow gauge tracks had reached Rico. Thanks for looking!
