- Description
- This photograph of a family of five was cut in half and glued to a piece of clear glass to hold it together. From studio portraiture to candid location shots, the William O. Trevey Glass Slide Collection documents the daily lives and labor of coal miners, primarily in the New River Coal Fields of southern West Virginia, at the turn of the Twentieth Century.
