Distinctive of Alaska, "Surprise Ports" bring
you the unique opportunity of going hiking
while on an ocean voyage. Not listed on the
printed itineraries, these "Surprise Ports" are
located off the beaten track, in secluded coves or
fjords, surrounded by unbelievable scenic gran-
deur. While the ship loads or unloads, the angler
may try his luck in nearby streams or lakes and
the hiker follow wooded trails.
EUSTACE PAUL ZIEGLER, whore distinctive dry point etchings
are reproduced on this series of Alaska Line menus, lived and
worked for more than sixteen years among the colorful pioneers,
native Indians and incredible beauty of Alaska. Mr. Ziegler
it widely recognized for his murals and paintings of Alaska
which are hanging today in all parts of the world.
Complete sets and envelopes for mailing are available from the Steward.
These dry point etchings are especially attractive when framed, and the
above description should be pasted on the back for a lasting reference.

Ocean steamers cruise mountain canyons in Alaska! Here lies
beauty, mile on mile continuous and ever-changing. Alaska
lavish in her generosity, offers you not occasional isolated vistas
to store in your memory, but a constant hour-into-hour panorama
of water turning from silver to 1jade, of skies painted by the
Midnight Sun of green-carpeted mountains, some wearing a
crown of snow. An Alaska cruise is one of the few ocean trips
in the world offering you "scenery-from-a-deck-chair."
