Description:
A photographic slide in a small cardboard Kodachrome frame (off white with yellow and red corner trim). The frame is labeled "Lowell Thomas 7—4—59" in handwriting. The image shows a frontal view of the Juneau Memorial Library, with a large seated crowd on its lawn. Between the two flagpoles, a small grandstand has been erected, draped in blue and yellow heraldry. Blue and yellow streamers also hang from the roof of the building. A man, possibly Lowell Thomas, is at the grandstand, speaking into a microphone. The number "23" is printed in red ink on the frame at the upper left.
