Description: Here you have a wonderful bit of VINTAGE HISTORICAL MEMORABILIA! Please...SEE THE SCAN!!! This is an article updating the Matanuska homestead project featured inside a complete 1938 edition of Reader's Digest Magazine. This 4–page article is titled "Pilgrims’ Progress in Alaska" (What has happened to the Cream-Puff Pioneers) by W.B. Courtney. It’s a good piece giving a description of the problems and progress of the homesteading program—and the farmers involved in it. It describes the economic and strategic purposes of the program; the competition from mining and fishing for livelihoods; Colonel Otto F Ohlson, of the Alaska Railroad; how families were chosen; costs, statistics on the land, the people, the costs; and much more! The magazine is in fairly gently read condition. Not mint, but quite clean and a tough find!!! This is a great piece FOR THE COLLECTOR! Take it home with you! GOOD LUCK! Please Check Out My Ebay Store for more great memorabilia!!! I am happy to send this to any country. 1st class air postage will be charged… More excellent packaging, and free 1st class shipping here in the United States! 733 >
