Hardcover. Condición: Good +. Unrecorded Times Book Club edition. This unusual printing was offered through the The Times (London) as part of the newly formed Times Book Club, organized by Horace Everett Hooper and C. F. Moberly Bell in 1905. The Book Club was set up to run a circulating library, its main aim to increase Times c…irculation, which it did. Subscribers paid 3 pounds 18s per year, on the promise that a subscriber would get "the books he asked for on the very day he asked for them" (Publisher's Weekly, 1906, Vol. 70, p1304). When the books became "second-hand", they were to be sold to the subscribers at reduced prices. This would be one of those copies. It is in a slightly different binding than the first edition, with a Times Book Club crest on the lower spine and without the gilt medallion on the front cover. After careful comparison with a first edition, these sheets appear to be identical to the first run of 3,000 copies. The sheets are trimmed at the foredge and base making this copy slightly smaller than a Smith Elder first edition. The typeface on the spine differs and there is a flat tooled line at the top and bottom of the spine and boards (gilt on the spine, blind on the boards.) The Book Club commenced in 1905 and the publication date of "Discovery" was 12th October 1905. The Book Club, and Horace Hooper's tenure at The Times as advertising director ended in 1908, with the arrival of the new proprietor, Lord Northcliffe, who was a substantial contributor to the "Discovery" expedition. In 36 years of specializing in Polar books, we have never had a London Times Book Club edition. We have seen copies with the Times Book Club sticker within, but not this binding. This binding is not recorded in Rosove, but conforms to Rosove 286. A1 within. 8vo, 2 volumes: 556pp, photogravure frontispiece from a drawing by Dr. Wilson, 7 color plates, 1 double page plate, 119 b&w mostly photographic illustrations, illustrations in text, 3 maps (&) 508pp, photogravure portrait, 6 color plates, 4 double page plates, 124 b&w mostly photographic illustrations, index, 2 maps. Contains both maps in the back pockets. Scattered light foxing in both volumes. With no advertisements at the rear, no extra slips and no dust wrapper, conforms to Rosove 286. Top edges gilt. Spines slightly sunned, a bit ruffled at spine head of Volume I.

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.

"What Scott wrote at the end of his life was an inspiration in meeting death with supreme dignity, and his words entreat reading again and again.

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.
