Ivil and Ethel Montgomery slide collection, [graphic] 1950-1969.

A majority of the slides were taken in Southeast Alaska, with the bulk of these focusing on the Juneau area, including many scenic images of the city of Juneau and of surrounding mountains, glaciers, and trails. There are photographs of other Alaska communities, as well, including communities whose artisans created handicrafts for sale at the Alaska Native Arts and Crafts Cooperative Association, also known as The Cache, which was owned and operated by Ivil and Ethel Montgomery. The subjects receiving significant coverage in this slide collection include the following: Auke Lake, Juneau downtown, Juneau ski bowl, Douglas Bridge, Mendenhall Glacier, Juneau Icefield, Tracy Arm, totem poles, and the Princess Kathleen. There are over 200 slides featuring the Mendenhall Glacier and vicinity. With a few exceptions, the individuals pictured in the slides are not identified.
