Archive of The Paystreak
— Newsletter of the Alaska Mining Hall of Fame Foundation —
The archive contains Paystreak issues current through November 2018. Since 1998, the Alaska Mining Hall of Fame Foundation (AMHFF) has conducted induction ceremonies in Fairbanks, Anchorage, Nome, and Juneau. For each ceremony, a newsletter containing biographic sketches of the inductees has been produced.
Newsletters produced for the first two inductions in Fairbanks and Nome in 1998 did not carry a specific name and appeared as handouts during the ceremonies. Beginning in 1999 they became Paystreak newsletters. A design that first appeared in March 2000 (Vol. 2, No. 1) survives more-or-less intact to this day.
Besides biographic sketches of new inductees, the newsletters contain Foundation news, induction locations, research credits, ceremony themes, and thematic chapters related to each induction. Users can track how the Foundation has evolved through time.
Biographic sketches in the Inductees pages have sometimes benefited from editorial comments by website users. In nearly all cases, differences between biographies in the Paystreak newsletters and on the website are minor.
