Description

Horse drawn stage leaving Tonopah for Manhattan, circa 1905. There was an inscription on the image. "The coaches were the primary mode of passenger transportation between central Nevada's early mining camps. They were eventually replaced by railroads which built into Rhyolite, Goldfield, Tonopah, and Blair, but served the area's smaller satellite camps until the mid-1910's when the automobile took their place. The photo was reproduced from an original 1905 colored postcard."
