Historic saw blade
An original saw blade at the ghost town of Bodie, California.br/br/Bodie is an original mining town from the late 1800's, starting with about 20 miners and growing to an estimated 10,000 people by 1880! By then, the town of Bodie bustled with families, robbers, miners, store owners, gunfighters, prostitutes and people from every country in the world. At one time there was reported to be 65 saloons in town.br/br/What's left today stands in a state of quot;arrested decayquot; and is maintained by the California State Parks System, who took over the town in 1962 to make it a State Historic Park.
