Three framed prints reproduced by Chugach Alaska Corporation bring historic Alaska Native artifacts into focus. One shows wooden slat armor with small carved faces across its middle, associated with Captain James Cook's 1778 voyage to Prince William Sound and now held by the University of Cambridge Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. Another reproduces an expressive Chugach mask dated 1860 from the Charles and Valerie Diker Collection, with a high red crest and strongly modeled features. A second mask image completes the trio. The two larger prints each measure approximately 10" x 8" overall. An all-tournament ulu trophy from the eighth annual Doc Larson Roundball Classic in Wasilla combines a polished, engraved blade and wooden handle with a curving antler mounted on a wood base. The antler sweeps around the blade, giving the basketball award a distinctly Alaskan form. The accompanying Kodiak Lions banner and two handcrafted seal-fur walrus figurines are joined by an amber glass mug, a clear glass dish with a bird-and-pine design, and a small Alaska Bluegrass Festival bear figure. The walruses have paired projecting tusks and flippers beneath their rounded fur-covered bodies. The stand used to display the banner is not included.
