Description:
Triple Knife Electrical Switch. The three switches have one three—pronged handle. The switches are on a metal base that has a hole in each of its four corners, presumably to allow the switch to be attached to a wall or table. Each of the handle's three prongs has text etched into their sides reading: "BRYANT \ 100 AMP 250 V".
Notes:
The collection is assumed to have been collection from the old AJ Generator Shed in the Last Chance Basin. The collection was on long term loan to the Alaska State Museum from the 1960—1970s until December 2013 when the Alaska State Museum dismantled their mining.
