"Centennial Exposition, Fairbanks, Alaska". This historic Steamer Nenana, last of the great sternwheelers, sits at the Alaska 67 Centennial Exposition held in 1967 at Fairbanks on the occasion of 100 years since the purchase of the 49th State by the U.S.A. from Russia. Old buildings in the background date from the time gold-hungry prospectors stormed into the North country.
