Description
Copy of black and white photograph of a party of men in the cage at the pit bottom waiting to be hoisted to the surface. The man in the foreground is the pit-bottomer and in his lefthand is seen the signal lever with which he signals to the winding engineman on the surface that the cage is ready to depart. Leaning against the wall on the right are drills, used for boring shot holes, waiting to be taken to the surface for re-sharpening.
