A quick message inspired by the recent picture identification query.
The Science Museum's lovely stores blog has just added an entry mentioning some on mining art if anyone is interested:
http://sciencemuseumdiscovery.com/blogs/collections/art-at-the-coalface-2/
The Collections Online catalogue probably includes references to others and many mining artefacts:
http://collectionsonline.nmsi.ac.uk/
and certainly there's a selection in the Science and Society image library:
http://www.scienceandsociety.co.uk/
For wider references, UK materials are often to be found in the various digitised materials available via the Europeana search:
