Summary[edit]
| Description |
Corsica mine stack at Elcor, Minnesota prior to its demolition. Architecturally significant, it was built by Cornish men of the mining industry in 1901 and was the last of its kind on the Mesabi Iron Range. From a Polaroid photo taken by William Keller in March, 1967 (Deceased). |

| Source |
Donated to the Iron Range Historical Society without transfer of copyright prior to the photographers death. Consequently, the copyright is still held by the photographer. Derived from a digital capture of the original Polaroid photo. Claimed as fair use regardless. |
| Article | |
| Portion used |
Only the portion of the original photo depicting the smokestack was enlarged and used. |
| Low resolution? |
Yes, but the image has been color-corrected from the original Polaroid photo which had faded. |
| Purpose of use |
The image serves as the primary means of visual identification for the only remaining landmark as described in the article Elcor, Minnesota prior to its demolition. |
| Replaceable? |
No other free photographic images (in black and white or color) which depict the smokestack alone prior to its demolition in 1976 can be found or are known to exist, so the image cannot be replaced by a free image. |
| Other information |
Use of the image meets Wikipedia content requirements and significantly improves the article. The architectural significance of the smokestack and year of construction likely qualify the photograph as public domain-architecture under Freedom of Panorama. |
