Part of Aleza Lake Research Forest fonds

Item is a photograph of a copy print that has been reproduced as a slide, resulting in low photographic quality. Location of original photograph unknown.

"I originally prepared this slide in 1992 to make the point that many of those researchers who worked at Aleza lived to a ripe old age. Two of these men died in 1993, Eric Garman and Dr. Joe Falconer. Joe never quite made his 100th birthday." -- quote from the notes of Ralph Schmidt in accompanying file
