Small decorative tin can intended for the storage of tea. (12.7 X 10.3 X 7.5 cm) The can is flat backed with scalloped sides and a curved front. All of the sides and the top are wonderfully illustrated with scenes from Scott's last expedition. Very slight wear and slight rust stains and abrasions to the top but otherwise in very… attractive condition. This wonderful commemorative tea caddy depicts many historic elements of Scott's "Terra Nova" expedition 1910-13. The lid shows a portrait of Scott, as does the front panel with Scott in Polar dress. The sides show portraits of Oates; Evans; Wilson and Bowers. The rear panel shows the group pulling a sledge through a storm and a brief history of the expedition. The can is really in excellent condition with very little wear. We have been unable to determine who the maker was or the exact date but perhaps it was done for a 50th anniversary. A very decorative item for the Antarctic book shelf.

Printed broadside measuring 765 by 505mm. Browned and chipped with some tape repairs to verso. A very delicate production on poor quality paper. Bacup, Court Theatre, [ Extremely rare. Returning Antarctic explorers invariably ended up on the lecture circuit as a way of either repaying debts or raising much needed income. This pi…ece is particularly interesting as it not only pre-dates the awful conclusion of Scott's expedition, but even Ponting's own return from the Antarctic. He didn't leave the Antarctic until February, 1912. One can only imagine the excitement and anticipation of the public on seeing Ponting's spectacular images. Not only would they have been amazed by the beauty of the photographs, but surely filled with optimism at the prospect of Scott and his men being the first to reach the South Pole. Indeed, just five days before the date of this performance, Tuesday 9 January, 1912, Scott's Polar Party separated from the accompanying crew members and the five of them headed to the South Pole. The death of the entire Polar Party was one of the great tragedies of the Heroic Age. This broadside is a poignant reminder of the public's hope and fascination with the expedition. Ephemeral material such as this is extremely rare, this example is not located on OCLC.
