| Description |
English: Few if any non-native people were in the Nome area before gold prospectors arrived around 1898. By 1900, the area had several thousand new inhabitants and an organized town government. Nome's Front Street was lined with wooden buildings housing law offices, steamship ticket offices, cigar stores, drugstores, restaurants, hotels, and many other businesses. This photo of Front Street in Nome was taken by local photographer H.E. Hammond in 1901 or 1902. Pedestrians crowd the sidewalks and street. A sign (right) advertises that the Bank of Cape Nome will pay the "highest price for gold dust." Original photograph: Hammond, H.E., 1901 or 1902. Copied after 1975 by the Museum of History and Industry.
