Illinois Mine War: March 2010
http://minewar.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 21, 2010. Mine War Site - Mine "B". Mine shaft location - Mine "B", Springfield, IL. In the 1930's, Mine "B" was owned by Carl Elshoff, and was organized by the Progressive Miners following their split from the UMWA. The Progressives later struck the mine after the UMWA attempted to assert control over the labor force. FBI records indicate that John L. Lewis provided funds to Elshoff to help him break the PMA strike. Posted by Make Better Media. John L. Lewis. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Illinois Mine War: May 2010
http://minewar.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 17, 2010. Two views of the Staunton Labor Temple.The first was taken in the early 1930's and the other photograph was made this spring. Nice to see a labor hub regarded as postcard-worthy in its day. At the same time, it's difficult to see that happening today. Staunton was also the launching point for the Mulkeytown March. More on that here. You can also view the route of the march by clicking on the Google Mine War Map in the right column. Thanks again to Sean Burns for sharing the post card.
