Youngstown, Ohio Court House 1909

Big contracts kept the quarry in operation in the early days.  The Youngstown, Ohio Court House was one of those.

In my research I found two photos that I think are the same piece of marble.  The quarry superintendent stands on a slab of marble intended for the courthouse while the other image is of a column cut from a slab.  The photos were taken close enough in time to each other that I think the column piece was actually  cut from the slab in the first image.
