Henson & Peary at the North Pole
—Rare item— manufacturer went out of business years ago
Suitable for use in schools & library educational dioramas
Perfect for use in educational dioramas. Schools and libraries will find them perfect for displays to encourage student interest in reading about polar exploration, biographies, history and geography.
Very accurate & detailed historical set. Faces are very true to the actual men. The Peary style sledge is the only accurate model ever sold. In fact, there never was anything else like this on the market. Includes an excellent 32 page booklet of text & historical photos. The manufacturer put too much love and value in these sets. He worked with experts to both sculpture the faces of Henson & Peary and to compile the photos for the booklet. It was just too expensive; the set didn't succeed in the commercial market for "action figures." All sets are in new condition.
(above) Front of set, inside and back of set shown. This auction is for a single toy set.
(Below) Highly accurate Matthew Henson and Robert E. Peary figures and authentic sledges.
(Below) Highly accurate Matthew Henson and Robert E. Peary faces were sculpted with help from experts.
"The discovery of the North Pole is one of the noblest stories in the history of exploration. It is a story of the battle of two invincible Americans against the terrible elements of the Arctic; a battle which lasted eighteen years...a human story filled with tragic suffering, pathos and humiliation. And it is noble, because these two Americans, who made the last great discovery in the Northern Hemisphere, were a white man and a Negro."

Bradley Robinson, Dark Companion, 1947
A US postage stamp commemorated their achievment
