HERBERT PONTING (1870-1935)A sledge dog listening to the gramophoneblack and white print blind-stamped 'The Ponting Collection' (lower right) and with an official edition label numbered 109/400 to reverse16 x 19½in. (40.5 x 49.5cm.) framed and glazedAnother version of this image is annotated by Ponting as 'Chris the Sledge Dog listening to the Gramophone';' The Gramophone Co. gave Scott a Monarch Senior machine, the top model of the day, along with several hundred mainly single-sided shellac records. In this image, Ponting revisits the famous Dog and Gramophone trademark which had been adopted in 1909 by the Gramophone Co. which was then renamed His Master's Voice. It seems the choice of records provided an area of discord on the expedition with the crew preferring jaunty sing-along music hall discs, whilst the officers preferred opera and concertos. It's thought that the record being played in this image is Tettrazini's version of the Bell Song from Lakmé by Delibes.Fine condition

(40.5cm.) diamThis bell represents something of a puzzle. Launched as the U.S.S. Bagley in 1919, she was then placed in reserve in 1920. When hostilities resumed, the Bagley name had been reassigned and so, between December 1939 and September 1940, she was called Doran, but in September 1940 she was handed over to the Royal Navy as H.M.S. St. Mary's and was broken up in 1946.

HISTORICAL DIVING: THE LONDON GAZETTE, 1687 AND LLOYD'S EVENING POST & BRITISH CHRONICLE, 1802comprising London Gazette 30 June-4 July 1687, report on back page that Captain William Phipps was knighted by the King for good services on his expedition where he took "treasure out of the sea"; together with London Evening Post 1 October-4 October 1802, long article entitled 'Diving Experiences' mentioning Robert Fulton and Nautilus, [Klingert], a Mr Todd, Dr Halley and Mr Spalding of Edinburgh(2)The ‘treasure out of the sea’ refers to the sunken treasure in the wreck of the Spanish galleon Nuestra Señora de la Concepción off the coast of Santo Domingo. Some sources report that an inverted container was used for the salvage operation, an early diving bell. The operation salvaged jewels, gold and 30 tons of silver, which at the time, was worth over £200,000 (about £50 million today). Phipps was the first New England native to be knighted.The London Evening Post article compares balloon ascension development with that of diving boats, and a comment that ladies tend to balloon and not dive, with the exception of a Mrs Short in 1780. It is also reported that a sporting celebrity of the time, Kit Blake, wagered 10,000 guineas for a diver off the isle of Portland to descend to 100 fathoms and remain there for 15 minutes. The diver and the wager were both lost.
