This collection of loose posters covers Alaska history, Native heritage, regional art, and exploration. The Klondike Gold Rush Centennial Seattle poster combines historic waterfront imagery with its 1898-1998 anniversary lettering. "Connecting Cultures and Continents" places twelve expedition portraits over a map linking Siberia and Alaska, with American and Soviet flags below. The Bering Bridge Expedition brought six Soviets and six Americans together in 1989 for a two-month journey through Chukotka, across the Bering Strait, and into western Alaska, giving the poster a particular place in the region's late-Cold War history. "Alaska's First People" commemorates Alaska's 50th anniversary of statehood with a collage centered on Native cultural traditions. "Skywoman - Moment in Flight", an American Indian Heritage Month poster dated November 2003, presents a woman and birds above a turtle in a luminous blue composition. Another Native heritage poster features a portrait against a red field. A Nome gold-rush map poster adds illustrated local history. The 1984 University of Alaska Museum "Vistas" poster shows a boat and waterside buildings. A KUAC FM 104.7/TV 9 poster uses a still-water forest reflection. A Native games poster pairs photographs of events such as the high kick, ear pull, and blanket toss with World Eskimo-Indian Olympics labels. An ARCO Jesse Owens Games collage adds track-and-field scenes and portraits beneath the greeting "From your friends in Alaska". The largest measures approximately 24" x 18".
