Description:
Silver gelatin print mounted on card, 4.75 x 7.25 inches, edges chipped as visible in scan.Manufactured in Marion, Ohio, Marion shovels were a world-wide fixture in mining and excavation from the 1880s through the 1980s. This photo of a Marion Model 61 in Russia may be during the construction of the mammoth iron mining and steel refining city of Magnitogorsk in the 1930s. Marion shovels there inspired poet and Magnitogorsk worker Boris Ruchyov to write the "Ballad of Excavator Marion." Inscription on reverse suggests it may have been published in a magazine.
