Blue Nose Cards

Blue nose cards are issued to each crew member that is aboard when the ship crosses the Arctic Circle.  62.5 N.   You will note the longitude is always blank, or may say something like "West Longitude".   There are some photographs of a Blue Nose ceremony on the Photograph page.   Send me a scan of your card and I will add it here.
