Object Details

Collection Creator

Coxe Brothers and Company, Inc. (Drifton, Pennsylvania)

Scope and Contents

Most of the glass negatives appear to depict Coxe operations in and around Drifton, Pennsylvania. This town was the seat of Coxe operations and the site of at least one major colliery, the building of which is chronicled in many of the photographs. Several photos indicate that they were taken cicra 1893, and it may be possible to presume that many of the others were taken at the same time. Select copy prints were made from glass plate negatives.
