Deckle-edge postcard

Slate quarry near Slatington, seen looking west, showing workmen engaged in clearing a "ribboned" slate from the surface of thick workable bed.

The town is to the left of this quarry scene.

Unidentified workers, photo postcard by Stauffer, Slatington, Pa.

This could be the Penn Lynn quarry operaation, but I am not sure and will have to do some more study of the image.

Typical scene around a quarry with the cables used to hoist slate out of the quarry.
