Additional Details:
The Magnificent 49th State. This view of the rugged scenic beauty of our last frontier serves as a fitting background for the historic "Big Dipper" state flag, and the stirring verse by Marie Drake. Eight stars of gold on a field of blue-Alaska's flag. May it mean to you The blue of the sea, the evening sky, The mountain lakes, and the flow'rs nearby; The gold of the early sourdough dreams, The precious gold of the hills and streams; The brilliant stars in the northern sky, The Bear - the Dipper - and, shining high, The great North Star with its steady light, Over land and sea a beacon bright. Alaska's flag - to Alaskans dear, The simple flag of a last frontier.
