Scope and content
On October 2, 1954, two couples from the Lakewood Dance Club took a load off their feet and sat back to admire the high-stepping dancing boots of "Gold Rush Girl" Mrs. Earl Davidson. The "Alaska Gold Rush Dance" was held in the Recreation Hall at the Lakewood Center. The sourdoughs and their best gals were, left to right, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Cooley, Mrs. and Mrs. Gordon Bennett (holding a couple of gold bricks) and Mr. and Mrs. Earl Davidson. Two amusing posters are behind the smiling group; the cartoons poke fun at the rugged, and unattached, gold miners. Photograph ordered by the News Tribune. (TNT 10-9-54, p. 5)
