Description:
A photographic slide in a small cardboard Kodachrome frame (off white with yellow and red corner trim). The frame is labeled "July 4 '59" in handwriting. The image shows a wider shot of an unknown street in Juneau, with two low structures with peaked rooves situated on the far side of the street, and a sliver of mountains in the background at right.. Power lines cut through the top of the image. A float is traveling along the street toward the left, a boat on a chassis pulled by a green station wagon. Both the boat and the station wagon are decorated with banners for the Golden North Salmon Derby. The boar has a sculptural depiction of a leaping fish attached to its stern, along with a couple of United States flags. The number "6" is printed in red ink on the frame at the upper left.
