A false front building in Exchequer, a mining camp in Saguache County, Colorado, has a sign which reads, "Rathvon & Co., Hardware, Groceries & Miners' Supplies." Posed in in front of the store are miners with shovels, packed burrows, a child on a burro, a greyhound and two other dogs, women holding children, a wagon with a driver holding the horse's reins, a man posing with his rifle, a saddled horse, and several men.
