Complete original U.S. run of National Geographic Magazine, Volume 168, Nos. 1-6, July through December 1985, with the original accompanying maps and supplements present. The volume ranges from Basque whaling archaeology, Hampton Roads, Israel, Iran and the world's largest flower to Australia's Murray River, Earth's changing geology, pearls, fossils and Senegambia. Later issues explore Sichuan and China, Arabia's ancient frankincense route, the wreck of HMS Pandora, Samoa and the Usumacinta frontier; the search for early human ancestors and a 1.6-million-year-old Homo erectus skeleton; and Kluane's Canadian wilderness. The December issue is especially notable for Robert Ballard's account of the discovery of the Titanic, alongside features on Vatican City, Nicaragua and Daniel Boone.
