Title: Panoramic Photograph of Beatty, Nevada Author: ** Place: Los Angeles Publisher: California Panorama Company Date: 1907 Description: Original panoramic photograph, approximately 9¾x67”. Taken from a hillside above the town. Shows rail tracks running through the town with a steam engine, as well as the dirt highway into and out of town. Numerous tents scattered among wooden structures. Founded two years after the big silver discovery at Tonopah, Nevada just after the turn of the 20th Century. Beatty was the supply hub for the Bullfrog Mining district. While Bullfrog and Rhyolite have become ghost towns, Beatty survived in part because it sits above the mostly underground Amargosa River and because it serves as the gateway to Death Valley. Lot Amendments Condition: Numerous vertical creases, some discoloration at ends; good. Item number: 200536
