Issued in 1937 to advertise CN’s Alaska service, this brochure unfolds to about 21″x33″. The colors on the cover shown below extend the full 33-inch width of the brochure, though any details in the remaining part are covered up with sixteen black-and-white photos and two text boxes.

The other half of the front side has similar color graphics that also extend the full width of the brochure, with one end featuring Wrangell totem poles and the other end the Russian Orthodox cathedral in Sitka. In between are seven more black-and-white photos and several more text boxes, including prices and itineraries for five-, nine- and eleven-day cruises.

The five-day cruises took place weekly using either the Prince Rupert or Prince George, but they served mainly British Columbia ports and went no further than the southeast tip of Alaska. The nine-day cruises went all the way to Skagway but only went 11 times a summer. They also used the Prince George or Prince Rupert, apparently whichever one wasn’t doing a five-day cruise.

The eleven-day cruises, which embarked just five times in the summer of 1937, used the newer, larger Prince Robert. They also went to Skagway, but lengthened the trip by detouring to Sitka.

The back of the brochure is mostly a map. However, an extra flap allows room for eight more black-and-white photos on both sides. While the photos on the main part of the brochure are of various Alaska towns and scenery, the photos on the extra flap show ship interiors and recreation facilities.
