The South Polar Times, a cornerstone of any Antarctic exploration collection, reproduced in facsimile form the magazines issued during Scott's two Antarctic expeditions. Sets of the original now command high sums. The present edition, issued for the Centenary of Scott's first Antarctic expedition, offers a faithful facsimile of the original set, a particularly extraordinary feat in view of the high numbers of chromolithographed leaves and illustrated nature of the original sets. The set includes a fourth volume, not published at the time, and issued in the same format as the previous volumes.

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.
