Name of creator(s): The following list includes photographers identified on negatives or prints in the collection, but is probably not a complete list of all photographers whose work is included in the collection: Alaska Shop Bornholdt Robert Bragaw Nellie Brown E. Call Guy F. Cameron Basil Clemons Lee Considine Morris Cramer Don Cutter Joseph S. Dixon William R. Dahms Julius Fritschen George Dale Roy Gilley Glass H. W. Griffin Ted Hershey Denny C. Hewitt Eve Hamilton Sidney Hamilton E. A. Hegg George L. Johnson Johnson & Tyler R. C. L. Larss & Duclos Sydney Laurence George Lingo Lucien Liston William E. Logemann Lomen Bros. Steve McCutcheon George Nelson Rossman F. S. Andrew Simons H. W. Steward Thomas Kodagraph Shop Marcus V. Tyler H. A. W. Bradford Washburn Ward Wells Frank Wright Jr. Administrative/Biographical History: Lucien Liston was a longtime Alaskan businessman and artist, and has been described as the last of a long line of drug store photographers who provided images for sale to the traveling public. He was born in 1910 in Eugene, Oregon, and came to Alaska in 1929, living first in Juneau, where he met and married Edna Reindeau. He served with the Alaska Territorial Guard in 1942-1943. In 1944, he relocated to Anchorage and in 1948, he and Francis Bowden purchased Hewitt’s Drug Store on Fourth Avenue in downtown Anchorage. The Bevers & Pfeil building was damaged in the 1964 Good Friday earthquake and Hewitt’s relocated to Spenard. Liston sold the store in 1978; he died in 1993. Hewitt’s Drug Store was an old-school drug store and newsstand that also had a lunch counter. A purveyor of photographic supplies and services, the store provided passport and portrait photographs, did a brisk business in postcards, and sold copies of paintings by Alaskan artists such as Sydney Hamilton. The proprietors often purchased photographs from Anchorage residents and others, adding them to Hewitt’s stock image library. Some of the prints in the collection include notations on locations and events provided by the photographer for captioning purposes. Some of the stock images are copies of older work by well-known photographers such as the Lomen Brothers and E. A. Hegg. The collection also includes original work by photographers who had major careers of their own, including Sydney Laurence and Bradford Washburn. Evidence from the collection suggests that Hewitt’s had also purchased the library of Bragaw’s Studio, probably when Robert S. Bragaw, Jr., left Alaska in 1944. Scope and Content Description: The collection consists of the portrait and stock image libraries of Hewitt’s Drug Store through 1978. There are passport photographs of approximately 805 individuals, circa 1933-1942, and portrait photography of approximately 145 subjects, circa 1960s. The stock library includes 6,983 sheet, pack, and roll film negatives and transparencies in a variety of sizes, on nitrate, acetate, and polyester film bases. The images are primarily black- and-white, with some color negatives (1870.1a-5a, 2062, 2070, 2334) and transparencies (2308-2309, 2324, 2332-2333, 2047.3.11). There are also 42 35mm color slides, most circa 1960s. Some of the negatives have corresponding print photographs in various sizes. There are also several hundred prints without negatives, only one in color (.2664). The subjects, locations, and time periods documented in the collection are wide-ranging. Many of the photographs chronicle business and daily life in Anchorage, especially on Fourth Avenue. Of particular note are Matanuska Colony photographs taken for the first annual report on the colony, documenting agriculture and homesteading in the valley in the 1930s. Other major subjects include early aviation and mining, with several hundred photographs of the Gold Zone and Hatcher Pass area mines. Notably absent (or unidentified is much early work by Lu Liston; his World War II-era work in Juneau and Anchorage is represented by only a handful of prints (2777 et seq.) The collection also provides some evidence of Hewitt’s sales and services, including greeting card and postcard mats; cut negatives used in card mats; advertisements; and negatives and copy prints of paintings by artists such as Sydney Laurence, which would have been hand- colored and sold as reprodutions. Arrangement: Arranged in five series: 1. Passport photographs. 2. Portraits. 3. Stock negatives and transparencies. 4. Stock prints. 5. 35mm slides. Passport Photos and Portraits series arranged alphabetically. There is no apparent order to the remainder of the collection. CONDITIONS GOVERNING ACCESS AND USE Restrictions on Access: The collection is open for research use. Physical Access: Original items in good condition. Nitrate negatives scanned and removed to freezer. Digital surrogates available for research use. Technical Access: No special equipment is needed to access the materials. A light box may be used to view transparencies. Conditions Governing Reproduction and Use: The Anchorage Museum is the owner of the materials and makes available reproductions for research, publication, and other uses.

Preferred Citation: Lu Liston Collection, Anchorage Museum, B1989.016 ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION Acquisition and Appraisal Information Purchased from Lu Liston in 1989. Processing Note Stock negatives scanned in 2013. Many prints seem to have been removed from albums; some are torn. Some prints numbered prior to 2013 actually had negatives. These have been renumbered to reflect negative numbering. Numbering for prints without negatives (.2600- ) is unsequential as a result. Prints without negatives numbered after 2013 were given sequential numbers after the last previously assigned number. Separated Materials Nitrate and deteriorated acetate removed to freezer. Passport photograph negatives scanned 2014 and all removed to freezer. 35mm slides housed in first box of 8 x 10 prints. Note Unbracketed information found on image; parenthetical information found on original envelope; bracketed information supplied by archives staff. “Copy neg” indicates a copy negative created by Hewitt’s staff. Collection characteristics in 2013 suggest that many missing numbers may represent deteriorating negatives that were discarded prior to 2011.

William Halbrook Crary was a prospector and newspaper man born in the 1870s (may be 1873 or 1876). William and his brother Carl N. Crary came to Valdez in 1898. Will was a member of the prospecting party of the Arctic Mining Company; Carl was the captain of the association. The Company staked the “California Placer Claim” on Slate Creek and worked outside of Valdez on the claim. Slate Creek is a tributary of the Chitina River, in the Chistochina District of the Copper River Basin. Will Crary was the first townsite trustee for Valdez. Carl later worked in the pharmaceutical field in Valdez and was also the postmaster. Will married schoolteacher Nan Fitch in Valdez in 1906. Carl died of cancer in 1927 in Portland, Oregon.

  • Storied Lands & Waters of the Allagash Wilderness Waterway

    Storied Lands & Waters of the Allagash Wilderness Waterway

    Part Two: Heritage Resource Assessment HERITAGE RESOURCE ASSESSMENT 24 | C h a p t e r 3 3. ALLAGASH HERITAGE RESOURCES Historic and cultural resources help us understand past human interaction with the Allagash watershed, and create a sense of time and place for those who enjoy the lands and waters of the Waterway. Today, places, objects, and ideas associated with the Allagash create and maintain connections, both for visitors who journey along the river and lakes, and those who appreciate the Allagash Wilderness Waterway from afar. Those connections are expressed in what was created by those who came before, what they preserved, and what they honored—all reflections of how they acted and what they believed (Heyman, 2002). The historic and cultural resources of the Waterway help people learn, not only from their forebears, but from people of other traditions too. “Cultural resources constitute a unique medium through which all people, regardless of background, can see themselves and the rest of the world from a new point of view” (U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, 1998, p. 49529). What are these “resources” that pique curiosity, transmit meaning about historical events, and appeal to a person’s aesthetic sense? Some are so common as to go unnoticed—for example, the natural settings that are woven into how Mainers think of nature and how others think of Maine. Other, more apparent resources take many forms—buildings, material objects of all kinds, literature, features from recent and ancient history, photographs, folklore, and more (Heyman, 2002). The term “heritage resources” conveys the breadth of these resources, and I use it in Storied Lands & Waters interchangeably with “historic and cultural resources.” Storied Lands & Waters is neither a history of the Waterway nor the properties, landscapes, structures, objects, and other resources presented in chapter 3.

Knudsen, Dolores Roguszka, Phyllis Mithassel, Alyeska Pipeline Services Co., Frank Flavin, Jim Cacia, Randy Smith, Don Horter Administrative/Biographical History: Stephen Douglas McCutcheon was born in the small town of Cordova, AK, in 1911, just three years after the first city lots were sold at auction. In 1915, the family relocated to Anchorage, which was then just a tent city thrown up to house workers on the Alaska Railroad. McCutcheon began taking photographs as a young boy, but it wasn’t until he found himself in the small town of Curry, AK, working as a night roundhouse foreman for the railroad that he set out to teach himself the art and science of photography. As a Deputy U.S. Marshall in Valdez in 1940-1941, McCutcheon honed his skills as an evidential photographer; as assistant commissioner in the state’s new Dept. of Labor, McCutcheon documented the cannery industry in Unalaska. From 1942 to 1944, he worked as district manager for the federal Office of Price Administration in Fairbanks, taking photographs of trading stations, communities and residents of northern Alaska; he sent an album of these photos to Washington, D.C., “to show them,” he said, “that things that applied in the South 48 didn’t necessarily apply to Alaska.” 1 1 Emanuel, Richard P.
