Description:
A photographic slide in a small cardboard Kodachrome frame (off white with yellow and red corner trim). The frame is labeled "Cutter Citrus passing Douglas 4—23—59" in handwriting. The image shows the eastern shoreline of Douglas Island at left, with its slightly snowcapped peaks and structures clustered along the shoreline. The foreground is occupied by the waters of the Gastineau Channel, which extend into the background at right. In the distant background, near the farthest visible point of the Douglas shore, there is a vessel traveling toward the camera, probably the eponymous cutter "Citrus." The number "8" is printed in red ink on the frame at the upper left.
