Original Flipper Script signed Ric O’ Barry

Remember Flipper!? This beloved 60’s TV show inspired a love for dolphins and other marine life in millions of people across the country. Flipper’s trainer, Ric O’Barry, spent the last four decades since as an international dolphin activist working to protect dolphins and free all captive dolphins. Ric was featured in the Academy Award-winning documentary, The Cove, and Animal Planet’s Blood Dolphin series, and has received dozens of awards for his environmental heroism and dolphin protection work. Pacific Whale Foundation believes that whales, dolphins, and porpoises are highly intelligent marine mammals that should not be kept in captivity for the purposes of entertainment. This original Flipper television script, including notes, signed by Ric O’Barry is a chance to own a piece of television history while supporting our mission work.

‘Orca Song’ by Robert Lyn Nelson

What began as an unexplainable, undeniable drive to draw beginning at age 3, has propelled Robert Lyn Nelson into a very elite minority of distinguished artists who defy categorization, having extensive bodies of work across all styles of painting & sculpture. Nelson received world acclaim for pioneering the Modern Marine Art Movement with his 1979 painting, “Two Worlds”. This original painting played a significant role in inspiring marine conservation efforts worldwide. – The distortions of the world around him has led to increasing surrealistic elements that have added a complex dream-like dimension to Nelson’s visionary art and ignited existing and new admirers. Moved by the intense mystical sensation his paintings and drawings evoke, Robert Lyn Nelson’s art is widely admired and acquired by collectors around the world.


 

Stop Whaling NOW 40th Anniversary T-Shirt

In 1980, Greg Kaufman founded Pacific Whale Foundation to save humpback whales from extinction, with only about 1,000 remaining in the North Pacific population. Since that time, the population has recovered to over 21,000 strong! This shirt he sported during his battle against extinction has inspired the creation of the ‘Stop Whaling Now’ shirt for our 40th anniversary to address a threat that is still ongoing to this day.
