Sue,

I don't know if there are any. The best chance I know would be the Joplin Public Library

http://www.joplinpubliclibrary.org/

check their ditigitized collections.

Also located there is the Winfred and Elizabeth Post Library. Dr. and Mrs. Post actively promoted history and the arts in the Joplin area.

Then there are Mining Museums or mining information in Museums

Galena Mining and Historical Museum Association, Galena, KS, 66739,
or call 620-783-2192.

It's has a really great photo collection. I called and they don't have anything on this company.
Since it's located on old Route 66, it gets included in online tourist information.
