There was an arctic exhibition at the nypl and I kept thinking of you! They had a ton of prints, books, and photographs. There was also a letter written by the surgeon on the Erebus! (Unfortunately my picture didn't come out too good)

Another long-delayed response to an ask from Yours Truly...
I did know about this exhibit when it was running, thanks to "Remembering the Franklin Expedition" Facegroup group—which is a great source of information once you ignore the crackpots and stupid questions—but had no way to get to NYC in time, so I love seeing pictures from those lucky people who saw it in person!
That print of relics is super cool!! I don't think I've seen the ulu knife made from a Franklin Expedition object before! The book with an illustration of a surreal Arctic landscape looks intriguing.
Now we know what the S stands for in Stephen S. Stanley: scribble.
