•  Info A few years ago I came across the original version of this photo in a collection of images of Alaska Territory from 1913-1921. Something about it stuck with me. Later, I found an edited version, but it was still in pretty rough shape. So I've spent some time restoring/editing it. Perhaps it's of interest to others. — Rhododendrites ^talk |  05:41, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

•  Neutral I won't oppose since this is a very well done restoration (thanks Rhododendrites!) and a generally interesting motif. That being said, I'm not really fond of the photo. It's not really sharp (especially the second man from the left) and some facial expressions are a bit weird (see men three and four). If I compare this image to real masterpieces of the genre "guys at their workplace" of (roughly) the same period, it doesn't stand out. August Sander's Face of our Time comes to my mind. Cf. some examples (unfortunately not yet PD), like 1, 2, 3, or 4. --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 07:07, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
•  Weak oppose per Martin. A well-done restoration of a photo too static for FP for me. Daniel Case (talk) 15:05, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
•  Support Good historical picture. Yann (talk) 06:25, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
