These are from my collection of prints. Scans are at 125pixel width, 400, 800, and 1024 pixels wide. I tried to keep resolution as high as possible so you can enjoy a nice image for your project. Happy 100th anniversary to Matt, Peary with all the team members, include the hundreds of dogs who made it possible to discover the North Pole!
