GOLDEN HISTORY MOMENT
The late Richard Ronzio was deeply interested in Colorado history–particularly its mining and railroad interests. In the course of his life, he amassed a wonderful collection of 19th and early 20th century historical photos. After his death, Golden Landmarks Association and the Jefferson County Library acquired the collection.
Golden Landmarks has just hung an exhibit at the Golden library, featuring many of Ronzio’s best photos. GLA has posted shows there in the past, and they’re always popular with the public. This year’s show focuses on Colorado railroads.
The photos will be on display at the library for about six months. Make sure you stop in and see them! To buy prints of the old photos, contact Golden Landmarks at 303-279-1236 or gold@goldenlandmarks.com.
