A tent building in Dotsero used as a shoe shop for railroad construction workers. The photo was printed on April 2, 1933.

Two of the tent buildings on First Street across from the railroad station in Gypsum [circa 1900]. The first buildings providing services to railroad employees had wooden platforms with tent structures on top and sometimes a false front. Many of the buildings housed saloons and, in this photo, even a bank/saloon combination. [Title supplied from catalog prepared by the Eagle County Historical Society.]
