This may explain the binding and additional presentation leaf - this variant is not noted in Rosove's comprehensive bibliography. "The owner of these volumes will possess an exact reproduction of the original "South Polar Times" which appeared month by month during the winters of 1902-3, produced as they were for the sole edification of our small company of explorers in the Discovery, then held fast in the Antarctic Ice." Thus begins Captain Scott's preface to the South Polar Times, which became a major diversion for the men on board the Discovery during the long sunless winter from 23rd April until 21st August. Scott wrote of it more fully in the official account: "The scheme for publication was discussed long before the sun left us, and by general consent Shackleton was appointed editor. It was decided that each number should contain besides the editorial, a summary of the events and meteorological conditions of the past month, certain scientifically instructive articles dealing with our work and our surroundings, and certain others written in a lighter vein. As the scheme developed it was found that other features, such as full-page caricatures, acrostics, and puzzles could be added; and now each month sees the production of a stout volume which is read with much interest and amusement by everyone." Shackleton "was responsible for the most famous examples of printing in the Antarctic. In addition to the first book printed in Antarctica, Aurora Australia (1907), Shackleton oversaw and contributed to the South Polar Times, first published on Scott's expedition to Antarctica on the Discovery, and again on Scott's fatal Terra Nova expedition of 1911-1914. Shackleton was also a contributor to the Antarctic Petrel, printed during his Nimrod expedition of 1907-09" (Stam & Stam). Rosove, 287.A1 & 291.A2; Spence, 1094; Scott, R.F.

III to 350 copies for sale, illustrated with 3 frontispieces, 2 folding maps, numerous illustrations, many full-page, many coloured; original blue cloth gilt with pictorial insets to upper covers, soft crease to spine vol. 1, a very attractive set. An exact repr…oduction of The South Polar Times magazine originally issued during the Antarctic expeditions of Robert F. Scott. 'Once the sun goes down in the polar regions, you're in it for the long haul: five months of darkness, nothing to do and mercury the wrong side of 40. Besides winding the gramophone, giving lectures and, that British staple, dressing up as girls, the explorers of the heroic age published their own newspapers. It was a tradition established on Arctic expeditions and enthusiastically taken up by Scott on his first trip south in 1902, when he appointed his team-mate Ernest Shackleton editor of the South Polar Times. After a well-lubricated banquet featuring noisettes d'agneau Darwinian and charlotte russe glacà e à la Beardmore, Cherry presented the South Polar Times to Scott with everyone gathered around the table and a Christmas tree made from ski poles. The captain read most of it out loud, interrupted by uproarious laughter and indignant barracking' (Sara Wheeler, The Telegraph, 2012). 'It has always seemed churlish to list this title under Shackleton, who only edited the first of the three volumes, for the publication arose during Scott's two expeditions. On the first of these, Shackleton was invalided home before its completion, while he was most decidedly not a member of the second Scott effort. Still, this should not detract from the publication, a lithographed facsimile of typescripts produced by members of Scott's party during three bleak Antarctic winters spent in his company' (Taurus). Volume l (April to August 1902) was edited by Sir Ernest Shackleton; Volume II (April to August 1903) by Louis Bernacchi. These volumes were published in 1907 with a preface by Scott. Volume III (April to October 1911) issued during Scott's last expedition, was edited by Apsley Cherry-Garrard. Taurus 42 & 79; Rosove 287.A1 & 291.A2; Conrad p.121; Spence 1094.
