réf. 52769Snoeck Publishers 2012. Original publishers paper-covered boards Hardcover in-folio/ extra Grand formaat 40x53cm; Luxe edition signed by Dixie Dansercoer. Bibliophile Numberd edition of 500 copies; Number; 281. ISBN 9789461610690. De Belgische poolreizigers Dixie Dansercoer en Sam Deltour hebben het wereldrecord gebroken van de langste niet- bevoorrade en niet-gemotoriseerde expeditie op Antarctica. Dixie en Sam braken dit record tijdens hun grensverleggende Antarctic ICE expeditie in Oost-Antarctica het laatste nog nooit geëxploreerde gebied op deze planeet. Na 70 intensieve dagen op het ijs hebben beide poolreizigers een afstand afgelegd van maar liefst 48294 km . Tot op vandaag is deze afstand nog nooit zonder bevoorrading afgelegd tijdens een expeditie op Antarctica. "Een dergelijke prestatie vraagt enorm veel kracht motivatie en doorzettingsvermogen. Elke dag opnieuw moet je ertegenaan gaan in de meest extreme omstandigheden. De laatste dagen waren ook uitzonderlijk zwaar. Het was navigeren geblazen tussen grote en extreem woeste sastrugi en sneeuwophopingen tot drie meter hoog en dat bij temperaturen tussen -45 en -50° C. Enkel door onze intensieve en goede samenwerking gedurende meer dan 70 dagen hebben we deze ambitieuze uitdaging tot een goed einde kunnen brengen. Snoeck Publishers 2012 hardcover

1933réf. 16075Cincinnatti Ohio: The Richardson Company 1933. Very good. Complete plastic tea set made of "play-proof" Richelain a material similar to Bakelite but characteristically lighter weight. Full synthetic plastics were an innovation of the early 20th century first with Bakelite but soon with many imitators and formulas entering the field.

This is a beautifully intact set of a rare Alice item. 10.75'' x 15.5'' x 2.75''. Set of 15 individual blue Richelain pieces in original box: four large plates four smaller plates four tea cups and three containers for condiments with an icon of Alice on the side the largest with a lid. Pieces set in original paper organizer with printed labels. With Alice-themed lyric on table manners by Dixie Willson printed on verso of box lid.
