Nenana and Fairbanks, circa 1926

Scenes of Alaska travel include the railroad bridge at Nenana, First Avenue in Fairbanks, the sternwheeler Alice, the Cowles Street library and a nearby home in downtown Fairbanks, men and women at the University of Alaska farm in Fairbanks, a child with a haltered cow, a goat, other livestock, a man panning for gold, mining activities including a sluice box and windlass, men and women pushing an automobile, and people on what is likely a street in Fairbanks. The filmmaker's labels indicate these scenes were shot between 1925 and 1927 (B&W/Silent/16mm film).
