The museum is $10 per person. I would allow at least 2 hours to really check out the place. The ticket is good all day long so you can go back if you want to on the same day. The matchless mine is across town and costs $10 per person for a guided tour or $6 per person for the self guided tour. They give you a very nice tour guide book and it provided all the answers we needed. The tour stops are identified by numbers which correlate to the book descriptions. Save the $4 and do the tour yourself at your own pace.
What can you reveal about a very small digging machine designed and built during the 1920s or 30s on display at the National Mining Hall of Fame & Museum by Alonzo Pawling and Henry Harnischfeger of Milwaukee, Wisconsin?
A:
I'm afraid you would have to ask the staff about that. Sorry.
