The latest batch of photos from the Tillotson archive includes this picture of a metal-clad wooden elevator as seen on a bleak winter’s day. The only notation on back of the photo is “1-2,” which tells us nothing. And within the image, we see no sign or object that could help us pin down the location.

Was this a repair job the Tillotsons participated on with Van Ness Construction Co.?

Which Riverton is it? Towns named Riverton are found in Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska, and Illinois.

We can only hope that by publishing the photo, we get a break in the case and someone will step forward with knowledge of the topic.
