Men Seeking Work

A poster from the mining district of Jackson, CA, stating to not ask for a job unless willing to be careful to avoid injury. Mining was a dangerous job and posting this type of statement would help the mining companies if any litigation ensued from a mining accident. It is in 4 languages, Croatian being one of them. The two languages other than English are Italian and Spanish. “Ljudima koji traže radnju” in Croatian means “to people who seek work.” Located in the Amador County archive near Jackson, CA, and dated to around 1910. Copied in 2017.
