Segment Sequence
Description:
Photographs of groups of miners are panned and Biondi puts names with faces. In one photo from 1910, he and points out where he had taken the interviewers at Pictou Mine and identifies mine buildings, company store, mule barn, schoolhouse, and people's houses. Then interviewers are outdoors in front of the Biondi Brothers Sporting Goods store, and there are shots of other businesses in Walsenburg. Footage shot from a car driving through Walsenburg at dusk follows, as well as shots of people on the street in the evening. There is low or no audio throughout the video.
