T.P.L. 3454, Sabin 47083. Rare. This is the copy that belonged to Adolphus Greely, the American Arctic explorer. He has signed it on the bottom of the title page and marked it “Valuable” The most recent owner was Norman R. Bobins, the famous collector of American Colour plate books, and has his bookplate. One of only four different Arctic "Colour plate books" produced during the Search for Franklin period. In our opinion this title being the rarest. Not in the first two vols of the Arctic Biblio. The exquisite images show the ships caught up in the ice, sledging operations, and a group of Franklin artifacts brought back by John Rae.
