EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken around the turn of the twentieth century, depicts the bustling Anchor Line docks and Pennsylvania Railroad (Pennsy) coal and ore docks in Erie, Pennsylvania, USA. The image, created by an unknown photographer, showcases the industrial might and economic activity of this important port city during the height of the coal and ore industries. The Anchor Line docks, located on the left side of the image, are filled with various freight wagons and coal cars, waiting to be loaded onto ships. The Pennsylvania Railroad docks, on the right, reveal a similar scene, with railcars filled with coal and ore, ready to be transported to waiting ships. The Erie Railroad, a vital transportation link between the Great Lakes and the eastern seaboard, is evident in the background, connecting the docks to the rail network. This photograph, taken using a dry plate glass negative, offers a unique glimpse into the industrial heritage of America during the early 1900s. The scene is a testament to the critical role that coal and ore played in fueling the nation's industrial growth and the importance of rail transport in moving raw materials to markets and finished goods to consumers. The image, part of the Detroit Publishing Company collection at the Library of Congress, is a valuable historical record of the industrial landscape of Erie, Pennsylvania, and the United States as a whole during this period. It is a reminder of the ingenuity, determination, and hard work that shaped the country's industrial past and paved the way for its future.
