It has been, during the years of its existence a barometer of the ups and downs of the Panhandle of the Territory. Juneau, through the initiative of a few public spirited residents, launched the Fair in 1922. In the first five years it operated in rented quarters.

That year it was housed in the Fair Building for the first time That structure, the largest building of its kind in Alaska, covers a land area 105 Ieet by 200 feet, and was built at a cost of upwards of $26000.
