They brought it to us and we consulted with Stan Zielinski, a plaster of paris and ceramic expert, about the best way to reproduce this plaque.  He repaired some of the lettering on the original and then made a plaster of paris copy of it which we could use as a pattern.  That way, if it happened to break, the original would still be intact. 

We cast the bronze plaque and they loved it.  Both the original and the bronze plaque sit side by side in the Air Museum located in Pioneer Park, one of the biggest tourist attractions in Fairbanks.
