1925 in Nome Alaska, a deadly outbreak of Diphtheria threatened the lives of the residents and residing communities nearby. The weather was too dangerous for most transportation to get the life saving antitoxin to the town, so they turned to 20 brave mushers and their sled dog teams. Without their bravery the town and their children would be lost and the push for creating a vaccine and vaccinating against the diphtheria.
The design features Balto, the most well known of lead sled dogs, and Togo, who isn’t as well known even though they went the most dangerous and longest route, guarding the diphtheria antitoxin.

As with any project that involves the use of third party production the biggest risk is delays with pin and other reward production, shipping or errors in printing outside of my hands. Having worked with similar production orders before, giving extra room for potential delays has already been worked into the time frame.
