EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Eric A. Hegg between 1906 and 1915, captures the bustling scene outside the Post Office in Anchorage, Alaska during the early 1900s. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life of this remote American outpost during a time when communication with the outside world was a significant undertaking. Men of all ages and backgrounds, bundled up against the cold Alaskan weather, wait patiently in a queue to send or receive letters and parcels. The Post Office served as a vital link to the rest of the country and the world, providing a much-needed connection to family, friends, and business associates. The exterior of the Post Office, with its simple yet sturdy design, stands proudly in the background. The image exudes a sense of community and perseverance, as people from all walks of life come together to share in the simple yet profound act of sending and receiving mail. Eric A. Hegg, a skilled photographer, expertly captures the essence of this moment in time. His photograph is a testament to the enduring power of communication and the importance of connection, even in the most remote and challenging of locations. This photograph is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art Collection at the Library of Congress, providing a unique window into the past and a reminder of the rich history of Alaska and the United States.
