Item description from seller

1st printing. 4pp. Octavo. Four pages, printed prospectus. Portrait of Shackleton on the front leaf. Perforated reply on the third page. fine "At a meeting held at the Mansion House on May 8th a Committee was constituted with the object of promoting a National Memorial to Sir Ernest Shackleton." This brochure was the prospectus to raise the necessary funds. It lists the General Committee members and provides a brief history of Shackleton and his accomplishments. The Memorial fund was set up to help support his children and his mother but Lady Shackleton wanted the better part of the fund to go to support his mother. After she died in 1929 the remaining funds were used to build a permanent memorial.
