Description
LOOKING BACK IN TIME by PRISCILLA BURGERS
A costumed Goldfield reenactor stops for a coffee break outside the Goldfield jail. Goldfield, Arizona is a reconstructed tourist mining town at the base of the Superstition Mountains. Back in the 1890's Goldfield boasted 3 saloons, a boarding house, general store, blacksmith shop, brewery, meat market and a school house. Just when it looked like the town would outgrow Mesa, the vein faulted, the grade of ore dropped and the town died a slow painful death. After several unsuccessful attempts to reopen the mines, the town did come to life again from 1910 on and off until 1926.
