When the movie opened in 1954 Ladd gave actual whales teeth to a few special friends. The plaque reads “A whale tooth from the Antarctic expedition of “Hell Below Zero” 1952-53. A Warwick Production for Columbia Pictures”. Tooth slightly polished. One could easily envision portraits of Ladd and whales on this one. Also, included are two DVDs of the movie. From the collection of one of our clients who is no longer with us. For more information:  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0047072/trivia/?ref_=tt-
