STIRLING Dr Edward Charles
Preliminary Report on the Discovery of Native Remains at Swanport River Murray; with an Inquiry into the Alleged Occurrence of a Pandemic among the Australian Aboriginals. Contained in Transactions and Proceedings of the Royal Society of South Australia Volume 35 1911
Adelaide: RSSA 1911. First Edition. Paperback. Very Good. Adelaide RSSA 1911. Octavo pages 4-46 plus a map and 7 plates. 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

South Australia. Its History Productions and Natural Resources. Written for the Calcutta Exhibition
Adelaide: Government Printer 1884. 2nd Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Adelaide Government Printer 1884 second edition/ 1883. Octavo xvi 307 pages with 56 illustrations mainly full-page wood-engravings versos blank plus 2 large folding maps one a chromolithographic geological map. Brown cloth slightly rubbed; extremities a little rubbed; light wear to the head of the hinges and the corners with the bottom two bumped; short repaired tear and a crease to the foot of the title leaf as a result of a production flaw; tears to the large folding map expertly repaired; a very good copy internally barely touched. In this second edition 'a few small inaccuracies are corrected and one or two passages relating to the Jubilee Exhibition it was proposed to hold in Adelaide are omitted . A few illustrations are added in connection with the chapters on the Aborigines and the Fauna'. In fact three plates are deleted from the first edition numbers 18 25 and 46 in that list and ten new plates appear in this edition numbers 2 4 16 27 and 42-47. Plates 42-47 are wood-engraved versions by J. Bruer of plates that first appeared in Taplin's 'The Folklore Manners Customs and Languages of the South Australian Aborigines' 1879. There are portraits of Wewat-thaleri and Waldaninyeri in Taplin these were original albumen paper photographs and four illustrations based on original artwork by Aboriginal artists - 'War Dance' by an unknown artist and 'Hunting Scene' Hunting Party' and 'Group of Animals' all by Yertabrida Yertebrida Solomon. In Taplin these four plates are lithographs and we suggest that Bruer has based his wood-engravings on the Taplin versions not on the original artwork. The erratum at the foot of the list of illustrations notes that the attribution of 'Hunting Party' to Solomon has been omitted. For more information on this early Aboriginal woman artist refer to our Catalogue 106A. By extraordinary coincidence we were recently shown the original engraved wooden block from which 'Hunting Scene' was printed - a local private collector had not long ago purchased it on the open market!
