EDITORS COMMENTS
Seventh Street West, Wells, Elko County, Nevada, USA: A Glimpse into the Past Step back in time with this photograph of Seventh Street West in the small mining town of Wells, Elko County, Nevada, USA. Dating back to circa 1930, this image offers a fascinating glimpse into the American West during the 1930s. The scene is dominated by the San Marin Hotel, a grand two-story building that once welcomed weary travelers and cowboys seeking refuge. With its distinctive white facade and inviting front porch, the hotel stands proudly at the end of the dusty road. Horses and horseback riders can be seen lining the street, while cars and trucks make their way through the dusty terrain. Wells, located in northeastern Nevada, was a bustling mining town during the early 1900s. Gold, silver, and other minerals drew settlers to the area, and the town quickly grew. By the 1930s, it was a thriving community with numerous businesses, including several hotels, saloons, and general stores. The photograph captures the essence of life in this remote outpost, where the rugged terrain and harsh climate were a constant challenge. Yet, the resilient spirit of the people who lived there shines through, as they go about their daily routines with determination and grit. Today, Seventh Street West in Wells is a quieter place, with many of the old buildings now restored and preserved as historic landmarks. But this photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the town's rich history and the unique character of the American West during the 1930s.
