Admiral Edward Ratcliffe Garth Russell Evans, 1st Baron Mountevans (1881-1957), known as Teddy Evans, was a British naval officer and Antarctic explorer, 1916. Admiral Evans was the Captain of the Terra Nova and surveyor on Captain Scott's final expedition which left London on 1 June 1910 bound for the South Pole. They reached the Pole on 17 January 1912, only to find that the Norwegian expedition under Amundsen had beaten them to their objective by a month. Delayed by blizzards, and running out of supplies, Scott and his team died at the end of March. Their bodies and diaries were found eight months later. Evans was one of the few to survive the expedition. John Player & Sons cigarette card series Polar Exploration, 1916.
