PAUL G. LAWLER (DATES UNKNOWN) ALASKA VIA PAN AMERICAN. Circa 1940.
40 1/8x27 inches.
Condition B+: repaired tears in margins, some affecting image; restored losses in top corners; restoration near left text.
One in a series of photomontage images promoting travel to the far flung corners of the globe. Here, a DC-2 soars over a totem pole and an eskimo native.
