Prospectors and supplies on Nome waterfront, Alaska, September 22, 1899
Tents and supplies crowd the waterfront as freight is unloaded on the shore. The building for the Alaska Exploration Company appears in the background. The same photograph was published on page 275 of the "Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen's Magazine," Volume 29. Gold was discovered near Nome in the summer of 1898. Prospectors rushed to stake claims and Nome's population quickly ballooned to 10,000 people. In 1899, more gold was discovered on beaches near the town and spurred an even greater rush of visitors. By 1900, an estimated 1000 people a day were arriving in Nome. Pillsbury took some of the first available photographs of the city. Following his departure, the winter conditions made it too difficult for others to reach the area.
