Description:
A photographic slide in a small cardboard Kodachrome frame (off white with yellow and red corner trim). The frame is labeled "Slide Juneau /62" in handwriting. The image shows an exterior, a small grass area at the foot of a hill. Captured diagonally, the image shows a number of broken trees jutting from the torn grass at the foreground into the middling area. Three taller, jagged trunks stand toward the right of the image. Beyond, the hillside looms above, with a tree line on the right slope and snowcap at the peak. The rear side of a parked car can be seen at the left side of the image. The number "16" is printed in ink on the frame at the upper left. Also bears the printed text "JUL 62P" on the bottom edge, perhaps indicating when the slide was developed.
