A Historic Look at Goldfield

On January 1, 1899, the Cripple Creek Newspaper, the Morning Times, ran two articles about the town of Goldfield. These articles are referenced in this episode to give the listener a feel for the Goldfield of the time. Below are both source articles I used.

 

The image below is of Goldfield the year after this article was published. This picture can be found at the Pikes Peak Library District digital collection at http://digitalcollections.ppld.org/digital/collection/p15981coll57/id/229/rec/1
