Old Ford

One of my Flickr contacts recently posted a photo from his visit to Gold King Mine and Ghost Town in Jerome, Arizona. The image seemed so familiar to me from my visit there several years ago. I looked back at my images and wanted to share a couple more from this interesting place.

 

If you ever visit Sedona, Arizona you should take the drive to Jerome for a visit. Gold King Mine and Ghost Town has to be the largest collection of old rusty relics I’ve ever seen. It is a Disneyland of dilapidated treasures and antiques. There are many old vintage trucks and cars parked all over the property. Many of the collectable cars and trucks are housed in sheds. Large garages and out buildings contain autos, auto parts, vintage motorcycles and an assortment of tools and collections.

 

There are several saw mills that are still used today to create furniture that is sold in Jerome and Sedona’s elite shops. A little shack was created to depict an old dentist office complete with vintage tools of the trade. Another shack for a miner’s cabin complete with outhouse for the essentials of the day. Chickens roam freely around the property. One could spend days here and still not see everything the proprietor has collected over the past 50 years.
