Artist Cherry Hunter was a long-time
resident of Victor, capturing the mining scenes around the gold camp
on paper and canvas. She was active in the community and helped build
the Trails of Gold alongside friends and family. She passed away
suddenly in November 2004, but will always be remembered for her
beautiful art depicting the gold mining history of the Victor area.
Ed Hunter is a retired mining engineer who has spent
years researching the history of the mining district.
This series of pen and ink drawings was
commissioned by the Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Company in
1987. CC&V has granted permission for the reproduction of the prints
as a fund-raiser to support the historic interpretation and education
efforts of the Southern Teller County Focus Group.
The prints can be purchased with brief
histories by Ed Hunter framed or unframed. They can also be purchased
individually as each of them are released for sale.
A portion of your purchase is a tax
deductible donation to the STCFG, which is a non profit 501c3
organization.
