1910 Library, Joplin, Missouri

[LIB3730]

The digital postcard images sponsored by the Joplin Library site show the development of Joplin from a scattering of rough mining camps through the mid-point of 20th Century. They provide an indelible image of a city that grew virtually overnight to become the world's premier supplier of lead and zinc ore. Interested in postcards? Check out the Joplin Library's collection!
