Sticker hobby roots miner Delbert Brown Ends long coal career
In 1985 Delbert Brown retired from Old Ben Mine 21 in Franklin County after a 20 year mining career. His passion for coal stickers grew from a photo album into a collection of over 20 000 stickers across 26 volumes.

Brown traveled to states and Las Vegas shows to hunt stickers, values some at up to 400 dollars for a box, and says the hobby keeps memories of the coal industry alive.
