Photographs were taken in and around Kodiak and also include Woody Island, Afognak, Eklutna, Ouzinkie, Port Lions, Kenai, and Uganik mostly from 1900 to the 1960’s. A few photos were taken outside Alaska, including Washington, D.C., San Diego, and Albuquerque. Photos in the Chateau de Musee, Boulogne sur Mer, France were taken by Helen J. Simeonoff to document Sugpiaq masks collected by Louis Alphonse Pinart, 1872-1873, in Kodiak, Afognak, Katmai; and Unga.
