‎JONES James W.‎

‎Report and Journal of Examination of the Country North-East of Eucla‎

‎Adelaide: Government Printer 1880. Very Good. Adelaide Government Printer 1880. Foolscap folio 9 pages plus a large folding map 'Plan shewing Country north east of Eucla examined by Mr James W. Jones with the view to decide upon boring operations for water' 555 � 705 mm. Drop-title sewn as issued; bottom corner of the front page slightly dusty; small blank corner piece of the map slightly creased; an excellent copy. The map embraces the entire extent of the Nullarbor Plain within South Australia covering 'an area of 16500 square miles . with a complete description of the country from the coast to the route taken by Mr Ernest Giles on his exploration trip to Perth'. It also includes 'Professor Tate's track shewn in red' presumably relating to Ralph Tate's travels there resulting in his lengthy paper The Natural History of the Country around the Head of the Great Australian Bight in the 'Transactions . of the Philosophical Society of Adelaide South Australia for 1878-9': see McLaren 15803. The journal 'gives a minutely detailed description of the country passed over . It will be seen that this hitherto comparatively unexplored country has been thoroughly examined. I found that in many important particulars the surmises in previous reports respecting this country were not borne out'. No less interesting is the account of the discovery of the waggon and last campsite of Fairie and Woolley who died of thirst north of Eucla two years earlier. South Australian Parliamentary Paper Number 191 of 1880; the quantity printed is not stated but around 700 copies was usual and this item is rarely encountered on the open market. McLaren 10540.

‎Killalpaninna‎

‎An original and probably vintage albumen paper photograph 103 � 150 mm of the departure from the Barossa Valley of the first Lutheran missionaries to Lake Killalpaninna in northern South Australia‎

‎The photograph is mounted on thin card captioned in pencil on the verso 'The first mission to the Mission Station'. There is a light 30 mm oblique crack to the surface of the image near the centre of the left-hand side and a thin blue ink line in a similar position on the right-hand side about the same length overall extending some 20 mm on to the image; a few other light marks and creases to the mount do not detract from what is essentially very good condition all round. The party consisted of Missionaries Johann Goessling and Ernst Homann and two lay-helpers Hermann Vogelsang and Johann Jacob. They set out from Langmeil Tanunda church on Tuesday 9 October 1866 with two large covered wagons and seven horses. This image along with the full details of the epic journey and the first attempt to establish a mission among the Dieri Diyari in the Coopers Creek area appears in 'A Work of Love and Sacrifice. The Story of the Mission among the Dieri Tribe at Cooper's Creek' by Pastors E.H. and H.F.W. Proeve Tanunda 1952 and in 'White Man's Dreaming.

Primarily given over to reports of pastoral occupation including several first-hand accounts of new country explored. Present-day readers may be interested to note the comments made by the Government Resident J. Langdon Parsons in his section headed 'Aboriginals and Settlement' in the first report: 'The blacks are beginning to realise that the white man with his herds and his fences and his preservation of water is interfering with what they properly enough from their point of view regard as their natural rights. Their hunting grounds and game preserves are being disturbed and their food supply both diminished and rendered uncertain. That settlement and stocking must and will go on is certain - that outrages will be committed by both sides is probable; but even those who do not claim to be philanthropists are not satisfied with the contemplation that the blacks are to be improved off the face of the earth'.

Full leather with the Mylar dustwrapper; mint in the original specially designed cardboard box. One of 299 numbered copies of the deluxe edition issued with a gilt-embossed leather cricket ball signed by Don Bradman still present with this copy - many are no longer so!. The odd limitation number was chosen because it is the Test record for the Adelaide Oval set by Bradman against South Africa in 1932 - incidentally he was not out. Wakefield Press/ SACA hardcover‎

Wrappers slightly discoloured around the edges; spine sunned and lightly chipped at the foot; an excellent copy. This lengthy article is a real sleeper: apart from being a potted history of small-pox in Australia it contains much local information from Mrs Louisa Karpeny Kontinyeri a Narrinyeri woman born around 1830. As Dr Stirling put it 'Mrs Karpeny related her reminiscences with much dramatic vividness and as they are interesting in themselves I will make no apology for giving them at some length even when they refer to other matters than the immediate object of my inquiry'. The plates include three portraits of Kontinyeri. RSSA paperback‎
