Amazing photo of Allen Crawford and Vic, the Wrangel Island expedition cat, in the 1920s. collections.dartmouth.edu/archive/obje...

Black and white photo of a bearded white man in light colored heavy arctic winter coat with fur trimmed hood, looking stoically at the camera but with a slight smile. On his shoulder a shorthaired tabby cat sits, perched confidently, staring firmly into the camera as if aware that a portrait is being taken. This appears to be taken outdoors in winter as the background is blown out white.

Good name, unlike some other expedition cats I could not name because it was a slur

Looks like Vic got a little frostbite on her ears, poor thing.
