Two framed reproduction prints after woodcut designs by Alaska artist Dale DeArmond (1914–2006) are titled Winter Juncos, showing birds foraging on winter ground, and Merganser with Ducklings, showing a hen with her brood. Three prints by Iñupiaq artist George Aden Ahgupuk (1911–2001) are titled Eskimo Blanket Toss, Return to the Village and Arctic Hunters. Two small alphabet illustrations pair a butterfly with B and a puffin with P. A blue textile printed with Alaska Native motifs, duck- and puffin-printed fabric panels and additional pieces are included. The Ahgupuk pieces and textile are loose or mounted under shrink-wrap as photographed. The black frames have areas of finish loss. Dimensions: Textile approximately 45" × 45".
