FAMOUS GOLD RUSH TOWN
Nome is a truly Alaskan town—a place you
will never forget. Lots of local color for the cam
era fan. Native ivory carvers-gifts, jewelry, furs,
souvenirs at most reasonable prices. You see gold
dredges-pan for gold yourself—ride the Curly
'GT-oldest railroad in Alaska. Every moment is
interesting and exciting.
Taste the thrill the old Sourdough sought
when he panned the streams for gold. It is
possible to take home your own sample of real
Alaskan gold washed in the pan by yourself.
Good Luck !
