Eunice Collins Collection, 1898-1967.

The Eunice Collins Collection consists of photographs, pamphlets, programs, and correspondence. The bulk of the collection consists of photographs which depict scenes around the Fairbanks area, including some mining activity, as well as scenes at Circle Hot Springs and at the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines (now University of Alaska Fairbanks). There are also some early images of Anchorage, Nenana, and Skagway and other areas around the state. The pamphlets and programs relate primarily to Fairbanks events and the correspondence appears to be from Eunice and her family.
