L.E. Robertson shows a view of "Watching the Floods at Fairbanks Alaska July 6th, 1905" in this great photo of waterfront Fairbanks. The Isabelle was a familiar boat in early views of Fairbanks, but I can't quite figure out the boat next to the Isabelle at the dock. Is it named the D.H. Schuman or is it advertising a clock repair shop with the giant clock that says "expert" on the casing and is pointing toward town? — Candy Waugaman
