Mining Figurine

This mining figurine was made of plaster and mass-produced by a company in Essen that created mining souvenirs for Germany and the Netherlands. The figurine is a cast made of plaster of a mineworker using a drill. The object between his legs is a gasoline lamp, used for lighting and to measure mining gas. The miner is wearing a helmet with a frontal torch. There are no specific details regarding when this figurine was created, but the Dutch Mijnmuseum estimates it around 1980, which is after the Dutch mines closed. This mining figurine is part of the collection of the Dutch Mijnmuseum in Heerlen. Visit the website for more information on the rest of the collection.
