Two additions to comments if I May: to Don and Maurine about RR tracks on 4th Ave. in the early fifties, Yes! Your memory is spot on correct. I am in the process of digitizing my dad's slides from our years in Alaska. Fur Rendezvous picture February 1952--the Moose Gooser at 4th and H (I think because Piggly Wiggly is in the background). And to Sheila about the rocking horse at Carr's at 13th and Gambell. It's not gone. It was on display at the Museum of Alaska Transportation and Industry in Wasilla the last time I was there. Hopefully it's still there!
