Historical Note

Lloyd Valentine Winter (1866-1945) and Edwin Percy Pond (1872-1943), of the firm Winter and Pond, were prominent Alaskan photographers. In 1893, Winter came to Juneau from San Francisco and entered a partnership with George M. Landerkin, known as Landerkin and Winter. In 1894, his long time friend E.P. Pond bought out Landerkin.

Winter and Pond operated their Juneau-based curio and photography studio for over 50 years, until Pond's death at age 71 in 1943. In 1945, two years after the death of E.P. Pond, Lloyd Winter turned the business over to Francis Harrison, who maintained the Winter and Pond Co. until it closed in 1956. [Portions of historical information from PCA 87.]
