            The Reprint of Leonard Hussey and Dogs Photograph Taken by Frank Hurley During the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition, with Inscription by Charles J. Green consists of a black and white photograph reprint of an image by Hurley of Hussey holding a large dog named Samson with another dog named Pudge looking on; this reprint was produced in the 1960s. The photograph was originally taken between 1914 and 1917 during Ernest Shackleton's Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition. Hussey was the smallest member of the expedition; Samson was the largest dog, and weighed 30 pounds more than Hussey at the time. The photograph is in an enclosure with the inscription "Kind Regards from CJ Green, Antarctic Expeditions 1914-1916 Endurance, 1921-1922 Quest," and also lists Hussey's, Samson's, and Pudge's weights in stones.
