EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical cartoon print captures the momentous occasion of the Alaska Purchase in 1867. Depicting Secretary of State William H. Seward and President Andrew Johnson, it showcases their warm welcome to the representatives of the newly acquired territory in Washington, D. C. The cartoon is filled with symbolism that reflects both political action and cultural aspects related to Alaska. In a lighthearted manner, it portrays various figures representing different groups present in the region at that time. From an Eskimo holding a harpoon and an Indian with a snowshoe to men fishing with spears and a penguin standing amidst them all, this artwork encapsulates the diversity of Alaskan culture. The purchase itself was significant for multiple reasons. It marked America's expansion westward during Manifest Destiny while also securing valuable resources such as fish from its vast coastline. The Democratic Party played a crucial role in pushing for this acquisition, which ultimately led to statehood for Alaska years later. As we observe this historic moment through this cartoon print, we are reminded of how politics shaped our nation's landscape and how diverse cultures have contributed to its rich tapestry over time.
