Poem by Pat O'Cotter in center, framed by collage of Alaskan views.
Poem:
HERE'S TO ALASKA.
The home of the tin can and dog-
A waste of snow, ice and moss.
A grave-yard of ambitions,
A by-word for HELL,
The home of the famed double cross.
Men come here for gold, ambitious for wealth-
The stick, for they can't get away.
They dig, drink and die,
And then go to HELL
To pay for their last sucker play!
--ALASKA --
