I would love to see the article....I've been noticing how the voyage made an impact on pop culture of the day. Apparently it was big news back in the day, and Kon Tiki tie-ins were everywhere. Everyone wanted to cash in on the Kon Tiki fame. It helped spread the poly-pop fire and immortalized the men on the voyage.

You could turn it into a book...get enough peeps with Kon Tiki collectables and you are on a roll!!

Viva Kon Tiki!!
