[POLAR EXPLORATION]:
AMUNDSEN ROALD (1872-1928) Norwegian Polar Explorer, the first person to reach both the South and North Poles.PEARY ROBERT (1856-1920) American Explorer. Peary claimed being first to have reached the North Pole with his expedition in 1909.Individual, dark fountain pen ink signatures by both Roald Amundsen ('Roald Amundsen') and Robert Peary ('With pleasure, Peary') on separate pieces, most probably pages removed from autograph albums. Matted alongside each other in cream and framed and glazed in a wooden frame to an overall size of 15.5 x 9. VGThe Norwegian explorer Amundsen led the Antarctic Expedition of 1910-12 which was the first to reach the South Pole, on 14th December 1911. He is recognised as the first person, without dispute, as having reached both poles. Amundsen was one of the key figures during the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration, alongside Robert Falcon Scott and Ernest Shackleton.Peary's exploration career is certainly controversial; the American claimed to have reached the geographic North Pole with his expedition on 6th April 1909, a claim which was widely credited for many years. More recently Peary's claims have been subject to doubt and debate, some polar historians believing that Peary honestly thought he had reached the pole (although in fact was probably 60 miles from his target) whilst others have suggested that he was guilty of deliberately exaggerating his accomplishments.
