PLACE
STAMP
BARSTOW, CALIFORNIA
This desert town was once the outfitting point for Death
Valley expeditions. Barstow was the center for gold and
silver mining in the 1890's when the present ghost town
of Calico was in its heyday. The town, located where high-
ways 66, 91 and 466 meets, enjoys a brisk tourist trade.
Here is located the Santa Fe Diesel shops. The surrounding
desert offers in limited or unlimited quantities a large
majority of all metallic and non-metallic elements and
minerals . . M.P.
