A miner whittles away the time, a common sight on the picket line at Moss 3. Some strikers simply reduced their cedar sticks to shavings and started over again; others produced genuine works of folk art. When Labor Secretary Elizabeth Dole visited the picket lines in October 1989, one striker presented her with a ball-and-chain he had whittled - a symbol of the strike, he said. B&W.
