EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1900 and 1916, depicts the exterior of N.C. Co. General Store in Fairbanks, Alaska. The image transports us back in time to the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the daily life of this remote Alaskan town. The storefront, adorned with intricate woodwork and large display windows, stands proudly against a backdrop of snow-capped mountains and a clear, blue sky. Men in heavy coats and hats gather around the store, likely engaged in conversation or waiting to make their purchases. Inside the store, one can imagine the bustling activity of a general store - the scent of freshly baked goods, the sound of crinkling paper wrappers, and the clinking of bottles. Despite the harsh Alaskan climate, the store's inviting facade and warm, welcoming atmosphere would have drawn in locals and travelers alike. The store offered essential supplies for daily life, including food, clothing, and, as evidenced by the crates visible in the window, liquor. This photograph is a testament to the resilient spirit of the people who lived in Fairbanks during this era. It serves as a reminder of the importance of community and the simple pleasures that brought people together, even in the most remote and challenging of environments. The N.C. Co. General Store stands as a historic landmark, a piece of Alaskan heritage that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
