No civic seal. Municipal logo consists of a map of Alaska in gray with the location of Bethel highlighted by a small red triangle. Superimposed on the map is the slogan 'The Center of the YK Delta' in dark blue. The slogan is laid out in three lines, with the top line being bowed upwards and the bottom line being bowed downwards.

Mayor Gary Peltola of Bethel, Alaska, informs me that his city does not have nor has it ever had any form of civic heraldry.

City seal in standard circular format, a very pale blue in color with all text and divisions in black. At top of the outer ring is the city name, while the name of the state is at bottom. In the center of the inner circle is a map of Alaska in emerald green, with the actual location of Fairbanks indicated by a small golden heart. Above the heart is the word 'Golden' bowed upwards, while below it is the word 'Heart' bowed downwards. Above the map are the words 'Incorporated on', while below
is the date 'November 10, 1903.'

No civic heraldry. The Home Page has a photograph of the head of a bald eagle superimposed on a map of Alaska in blue-grey, but as the actual location of Kenai is not marked I do not think that this qualifies as any kind of logo.

A city pin uses a logo designed many years ago. The pin shows Mt. Redoubt, an active volcano in the background, the old
Russian Orthodox church in the foreground, a salmon jumping (fishing was our first industry), and an oil platform on the water. Oil was discovered here in 1959. Our motto is 'Village with a past, city with a future.'

Civic seal is in a standard circular format with the outer ring in silver gray. The name of the city is in black at the top of this ring and the name of the state, also in black, at the bottom. The inner circle depicts a grizzly bear in natural colors standing upright; on his right is a lobster, above him is a king crab, and on his left a salmon, also in their natural colors. This seal may not be very artistic, but it does convey what the city is all about. Since the major economic factor on Kodiak Island is the U.S. Naval Base and Naval Air Station, I would might have expected some reference to it on the seal.
