The old photo most likely from late 1890s of a dude in Mina Nevada that looks for gold. How cool is that!
Mina, NV – 1940’s Downtown Main Street – Mina Club. I was notified by Nevada History Enthusiast group, that this picture is not from Mina, NV and I’m thankful for them carrying and letting me know. I also heard from them that lots of historic photos and even postcards were mislabeled. Like this one for example.

Mina, NV – Southern Pacific Railroad passenger station – 1968
Another photo of the Train depot Cafe in Mina. There was a plenty of parking out front for everyone driving by and the truckers. I heard the depots life ended by fire. So sad!
This in not the Southern Pacific Railroad turn table in Mina, NV. But I thought this beautiful historic postcard thinking it was. It was advertised as Turntable in Mina, NV. But than I found out that there wasn’t turntable in Mina, NV. But I’m still nappy with it, it’s beautiful and I’m keeping it here just for it’s historic value and beauty. Anyone knows where this beautiful turntable was? Or maybe still is? I found out later that this turn table was in Laws, CA. Beautiful mystery is solved! Thank you to everyone who helped or tried to help me solve it!
