Jerome, AZ
Photos from my retro photo album titled: Jerome, October 2007. Jerome, Arizona, is a captivating place, a photographer’s playground. Abandoned homes cling to the hills, and staircases lead to nowhere. Copper put Jerome on the map, and the removal of that copper wiped Jerome off it. Pictured is a former bank, or maybe it was aContinue reading “Jerome, AZ”
