Goldfield,NV - Esmeralda County - 1906 - Map and Newsletter produced by D. Mackenzie & Co. :
D. Mackenzie and Company, Inc., Mine Operators and Commission Brokers, Goldfield, NV, Collection containing a map of Nevada and a newsletter, both published in 1906. Also, included is a stamped envelope to H. F. Heitmann, Esq to which the collection was likely sent. The map has Goldfield and Greenwater circled in red (a small southeastern portion of California is included on the map). The map depicts many mining operations that disappeared as quickly as they showed up on maps, such as "Goldy." The newsletter discusses specific Goldfield and Greenwater mining operations as those operations relate to successes and failures. The newsletter includes three photographs: 1) August Mine near Goldfield; 2) Death Valley taken from the summit of the Funeral Range, near Greenwater; 3) Funeral Creek and Greenwater Mining Company's Patsy Clark Mines. This collection represents a complimentary set produced by D. Mackenzie and Company to sell their fame as they report: "Holders of the World's Record for Rapid Mine Making and Dividend Paying."
