Archivally fresh and VF mint NH block of four and single of the 1911 issue 1p carmine "Commerce", overprinted "VICTORIA LAND." in black. These stamps were intended for use by the ill-fated Scott expedition at the Cape Evans base on McMurdo Sound in Antarctica or on the supply ship Terra Nova. Conservatively valued as a Hinged single and block of four, even though both are pristine NH. Lovely and historic showpiecs for the Polar collector. The lot also includes a 1972 GB FDC signed by a member of the 1910-1913 expedition. Ex. Bileski. Includes the original notes and invoice (for $500.00). 2019 Scott US$350.00=
