Carol Devine has been busy digging up further examples of Antarctic adverts after seeing my post on twitter – find out what she has to say about it over on her blog ‘The Antarctic Book of Cooking and Cleaning’:

“Inspired by Hanne Nielsen‘s call for Antarctic ads. She specialises “in representations of Antarctica in cultural production“, based in Tasmania, Australia and does cool work.
