Hine's description from the Library of Congress reads: "First Aid to the Injured" represents a man equipped with a Draeger Oxygen Helmet. Avondale Shaft, D.L.W. Colliery. The need for and the presence of these rescue outfits is a strong argument against the employment of young boys. Location: [Pennsylvania]"
