Polar Exploration Interest - a pair of c1900s Harrods ice skates by repute once owned by Wilfred Montague Bruce of Scott's British Antarctic Expedition 1910. The boots are of leather construction, with original 'Harrods Ltd, London' labels to the interior in gold lettering. Featuring steel 'The Mount Charles' Size 38 ice skating blades. They survive in used but generally very good original condition. 35cm long, approx.Provenance: by repute. The vendor purchased the boots with the association being known and a copied note with Bruce's career details was supplied. No further provenance is known. Harrods did supply boots and other items to the expedition, and this is well documented.Wilfred Montagu Bruce was born in Scotland in 1874. He was educated at Edinburgh Academy and joined HMS Worcester as a cadet, later serving in the Merchant Navy as an officer in passenger liners. Bruce, whose sister Kathleen had married Robert Falcon Scott in 1908, joined the British Antarctic Expedition, 1910 - 1913 (leader Robert Falcon Scott). Initially he helped to collect and transport sledge dogs and ponies from Vladistock to New Zealand. Later he served as second officer onboard Terra Nova on both the southern voyages. (with thanks to National Library of New Zealand). The 1939 electoral register shows that Wilfrid Montague Bruce and his sister, Rosamond Hilda Bruce were living at The Elms at 26 Gloucester Road in Thornbury, which may explain how they ended up locally.
