View of a group of men and women gathered around a scale model of a fish trap. The sign in front reads: "This is a fish trap, Alaska's Enemy No. 1, vote oct. 12th, to abolish it". Based on other photographs in the series this photograph was most likely taken in Anchorage, Alaska. Based on other photographs in the series this photograph was most likely taken in 1948. Original photograph size: 3 1/2" x 4 1/2".

Love or hate them? #Fishweirs have always been a contentious issue of mass capture fishing such as access to Salmon stocks in the 1940s Alaska.
