In Seattle Unused No Gum This Poster Stamp Is Part Of The “See Alaska” Series Promoting Alaskan Tourism And Infrastructure In The Mid-20th Century, Likely Between 1940 And 1955. The Stamp Features A Dual-Image Montage Highlighting Alaska’s Transportation Evolution: At The Top, A Musher Drives A Dog Sled Team Across A Snowfield With Mountains In The Background, Symbolizing Traditional Overland Travel; Below, A Twin-Engine Propeller Plane Represents Modern Air Travel. The Red Circular Emblem At Upper Right Reads “See Alaska — Nature’s Greatest Masterpiece,” The Standard Branding For This Series.
