Two TLSs: one signed "R. E. Peary, U. S. N.," one page, 8.5 x 11, November 5 1909, in part: "The time is not far distant when this whole country will recognize what fools the people have made of themselves, and what a National disgrace recent occurrences here have been"; and one signed "V. Stefansson," one page, 8 x 10, personal letterhead, September 15, 1923, in part: "I have been thinking a good deal about what you said about the suitability of your transportation system for new countries. I think there may be a special place for it in the Arctic…my book 'The Northward Course of Empire'…gives various facts and theories about the colonization and development of the arctic lands." In overall very good to fine condition, with some creasing to the Peary letter. Accompanied by two unsigned photos.
