The official emblem of Seattle's 1909 Alaska-Yukon Exposition was designed by Adelaide Hanscom of Seattle. The emblem, with its three female figures, was used on programs, souvenirs, and other items. The woman on the left holds a ship and represents the Orient. The central figure holds gold nuggets and symbolizes Alaska. The one on the right holds a railroad engine, symbolizing commerce with Seattle and the rest of the United States.
