Sara's Shaft - Wheal Kitty, Cornwall, England
This picture was taken just prior to the Bob being thrown off its stool and smashing into the cylinder below. A sad day as the engine was good but the price of tin was low and mines were closing all around.
The fellow in the lower right with the arm in the sling is Arthur Jory. What he didn't know about mining could be written on a pin head with a felt tip. He appears in some of the South Crofty pictures replacing a beam that had broken and fallen into the top of the shaft.
The photo's are 1926...
