Center of Jenkins. [Aerial View] (Printed verso reads: "Located in the heart of the Elkhorn Coal District of Southeastern Kentucky, Jenkins, a city of 10,000 people, had enjoyed for years the reputation of being one of the most beautiful mining towns in the country. Until recently it was a company owned and totally controlled town. Jenkins citizens now own their homes, businesses, churches, and schools. This view shows only the central business section. The town is 8 miles long and is strung out along the narrow valleys.")
