Antarctica - Norwegian Whaler's mail | |||||
|
|
The mail between the Whalers on the catching fields and home was mostly transported on the Whaling Companies own wessels. When family back home sent mail, the address often is via 1
The centre of the whaling industry in antarctic
waters was South Georgia, the postal connection between South Georgia and
Europe was not good, hence shipping on board the whaling wessels was much
more efficient. This is why mail to and from whalers with arrival
cancellations is scarce. |
