Mine Rescue Squad Member - Robert Roberts (1914)
Robert Roberts of the Number 1 Rescue Squad, Number 6 Pit at the Tylorstown Collieries. Based on a photograph from 1914. This a hand pulled linocut, part of my series of prints honouring the coal miners of the Rhonnda Valleys, South Wales. These rescue guys must have been as hard as nails. Two more of his colleagues coming along soon. Many thanks to the Rhonnda Cynon Taff library service for allowing me to use their brilliant photo archive. Here comes the official blurb....("reproduced by permission of Rhondda Cynon Taf Libraries")
