The above photograph appeared on an old postcard I got from my old friend, the late Fred Good. It looks like the type of photo the late George Johnston would take.
He took wonderful photos of the Teslin-area people, documenting the lifestyle of his people, from his trapline to life in the Teslin village.
I believe he also made his own postcards. The postcard above could be one of them; I believe it’s at least his photography. The photograph was probably taken in the late 1920s or ‘30s in Teslin.
