Description: Two ships unloading supplies on the Alaska Home Railway Wharf in Valdez, Alaska. Two large ships are docked side by side to a wooden pier. The larger ship that is docked closest to the pier has written on its bow "Portland of Port Townsend". The smaller ship next to the S.S. Portland has written on its bow "John C Potter Tacoma". In the foreground of the image are two men in dark garments and hats standing on boats looking at the camera. Five various small boats are floating in the water near the wharf.
