The
following shows are for the mining purists. You will only see mining artifacts,
no other antiques. So if you are only interested in mining artifacts these
shows will definitely help add to your mining collection.
The
shows are in Arizona, Colorado, California and Kentucky where there has been a
lot of mining history. You missed the first one, so you need to get
busy!
