EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 1900s in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The image showcases a bustling steel mill, with railroad cars lined up as far as the eye can see. These cars are filled to the brim with iron ore and coke, essential materials for the steel-making process. The scene exudes an air of industry and progress, capturing a pivotal moment in American history when Pittsburgh was known as the "Steel City". This photograph offers a glimpse into the heart of this booming industrial town during its heyday. The composition is enhanced by the presence of a riverboat or steamboat on the nearby river. It serves as a reminder of how crucial water transportation was for moving raw materials like iron ore from one place to another. As we admire this stereograph from 1905, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the immense scale and power of this steel mill. Its towering structures dominate the landscape while workers scurry around diligently carrying out their tasks. This print is not just an artistic representation; it holds historical significance as well. Preserved by Library of Congress, it stands as a testament to America's industrial prowess at that turn-of-the-century era.
