I believe the name written on this card is misspelled.
I found a Niemi family with a son William who was born in 1904 --with a notable father August V. Niemi.
The web site Alaskahistory dot org has a detailed page about Niemi, August V. (William’s father) and the family.
The family moved to the Juneau area in 1910
and from there to Eska, Alaska, in 1915.
The family sent the older children including William to high school in Anchorage.
This card’s stamp box design indicates it could have been taken in the 1920s when William would be around age 18-25 - when he perhaps back in the Juneau area after school.
Please examine the images carefully as the photos are our best description. We're always happy to try to answer questions about condition.
NOTE: We sometimes heavily watermark to protect our photos and the card images for the benefit of our customers.
Thanks for looking!
