This month's #ArchivesHashtagParty is #ArchivesScience. We don't have a lot of science-focused artifacts in the collection, but our archive is a treasure trove! #CollectionExploration #InTheArchives #MuseumsEh #KnowYourMuseum
This week’s #WhatsItWednesday artifact was a coin collector used to collect and hold change, specifically dimes, while delivering newspapers around Rossland through the 1930s and 1940s. #CollectionExploration #MuseumsEh
Extra! Extra! Read all about it! It's another #WhatsItWednesday! This device measures only 7cm tall but would have been an important accessory for Rossland’s resident newsies. Can you cash in on your Rossland knowledge to figure out what it would have been used for?

Happy #MiningMonday! We’ve shared quite a few photos of the Le Roi Mine, but this is a side of the mine that we rarely see! Normally, we only have photographs of the mine buildings themselves or the underground workings.

We’ve been finding a lot of amazing photographs in the archives lately, and we couldn’t wait to share them with you for #MiningMonday! Up first, this amazing photo of the O.K. Mine, a property we don’t have many images of! #MuseumsEh #CollectionExploration #InTheArchives
Time for another #ArchivesHashtagParty! This month, the @USNatArchives challenged museums and archives to share their best #ArchivesBabies! We had a hard time narrowing it down, but here are some of our favourites! #InTheArchives #CollectionExploration #MuseumsEh
For this week’s #MiningMonday, we’re taking a look at the Joe Cushner Cominco safety posters that we have on display in the museum. Cushner created hundreds of safety posters for the company that looked at the causes of accidents and how to avoid them. #CollectionExploration

Happy #FascinatingFriday! Did you know that Rossland had bootleggers during prohibition? James Harper, sometimes known as “The Soda Man” was a notorious Rossland bootlegger who smuggled hard liquor and beer throughout Canada's Prohibition (1917-1921).

This week's #WhatsItWednesday artifact has us in stitches! We can't seem to figure out what this small oil can was used for. Can you help us patch together what type of machine it was used on so it won't be our What's It Wednesday swan song?
