This is a nice collection of 34 black and white photos of Alaska during the 1890s gold rush period. These 3"x 4’ pictures show everyday life and scenery of the wilds of Alaska. There are also a few depictions of the local Indian totems. Also included in the lot is a before and after view of a store in Dawson City. The postcard shows the store in its beginnings as a tent. The 8.5"x 6.5" photo shows the interior of the store after it became a permanent structure. This photo is matted and measures 11"x 13". All pictures are still very sharp. Nice period collection.
