Heard Island Expedition 1997 (Miscellany)

MISCELLANY
SOUVENIRS
The souvenirs serve two purposes: (1) to provide you with a memento of your participation in this project; (2) to raise a bit of cash to help offset the expedition costs. We realize that you can buy a servicable mug or tee-shirt for less, but these are designed to celebrate the success of this historic event. We hope you will get one of these souvenirs and cherish it. All profits from these souvenirs go to defray the cost of VKØIR.
