OCTOBER 2017 • NEBRASKAland 5 Sabine Kantenseter photographed this burrowing owl near North Platte in July. Earl Motschenbacher of Lincoln sent in this trailcam image of fighting tom turkeys. Three Dollar Bill While going through some old stuff, I found this, and I didn't want to throw it away! It has something to do with the Nebraska Centennial. My late husband and sons were always interested in "old memories." I hope it has some importance. If so, I hope to hear from you. Isabelle Clinkenbeard Louisville, Nebraska Dear Louis, It appears you have a 1967 Bank of De Soto three dollar bill note – a Nebraska Centennial collectible souvenir. This novelty currency was produced for the 1967 Nebraska Centennial. The slogan on back reads "A Three Dollar Bill is only 'different' Nebraska is 'Unique'." This is a reproduction of the "Wildcat" notes issued by the Nebraska banks in the 1850s. – Editor Solar Eclipse I think Nebraska might be the premier state to view the solar eclipse! I don't think there is a more diversified published outdoor magazine in the country than NEBRASKAland. G. E. Dave Fuller Lincoln, Nebraska Just got the Aug/Sept. issue today. I enjoyed the "Total Eclipse of the Sun" article. I am located 50 miles from Carbondale, Illinois, which is the spot of longest totality in the country. Sincerely, Ray Fansler Fairfield, Illinois
