The photo shows a stagecoach in front of the Nye County Mercantile. Photograph measures 7 7/8”x5 5/8”, no mount, medium contrast—some yellowing, and focus is good to fair. The sign can be read clearly. Horses are in good focus, but clarity diminishes on the left side of the photo. There is foxing on the upper potion of the photo and numerous minor tears and creases. The photographer is W.I. Booth. Booth was active in Tonopah after 1900. On the photograph “Tonopah & Sodaville Stage” is written in ink. Trip by stagecoach from Sodaville to Tonopah lasted twelve hours and covered rugged terrain.
