Walrus on Migration
fun of 800 lithographs
Nome was battered by a severe storm in 1972, which came in off the Bering Sea with waves that crashed over the sea wall and sent walls of water cascading down Front Street. Damage to everything on the ocean side of the street was extensive. The town library, which was in the basement of one of the buildings on the southern end of town, was flooded. The run of 800 lithographed prints of this woodcut was authorized as a fundraiser for the library.
