Angas Family Property. SMITH Douglas Darian
A large aerial photograph of Lindsay Park circa 1930 the sprawling homestead near Angaston in the Barossa Valley which George Fife Angas made his home upon his arrival in South Australia in 1851. Long know as a stud for thoroughbred racehorses the property is now owned by Goldin Farms
The gelatin silver photograph visible image size approximately 420 � 570 mm is matted framed and glazed external dimensions 590 � 740 mm; mat a little foxed; minimal silvering-out near the vertical edges; overall in fine condition. While the photographer is not identified on the image we believe it to have been taken by Adelaide photographer Darian Smith in the early 1930s around the time he was producing numerous aerial views of South Australian landmarks for his publication 'Adelaide South Australia from the Air' Adelaide Gillingham & Co. circa 1932. Provence: the estate of Sara Angas formerly of Lindsay Park with the small estate stamp affixed to the verso. unknown

ANGAS George Fife
A vintage carte de visite photographic portrait of George Fife Angas 1789-1879 the influential South Australian pioneer
The albumen paper photograph 94 � 61 mm is mounted on the printed card 104 � 63 mm of The Adelaide Photographic Company. There is an example of the same image in the State Library of NSW a gift from a family member John Howard Johnson; it is dated January 1870. There are a few tiny surface scrapes to the bottom millimetre or so of the image and slight surface loss to the plain section of the mount adjacent to it but overall it is in excellent condition. The 'Australian Dictionary of Biography' has this to say about Angas: 'although his prominence in the foundation of South Australia has been somewhat exaggerated . he deserves full credit for the capital and settlers that he introduced into the new colony'. At least he put his mouth where his money was: he emigrated with his family in 1851 and spent the rest of his life in the colony. unknown

HORROCKS John Ainsworth
John Ainsworth Horrocks' Journal. Contained in Proceedings of the Royal Geographical Society of Australasia South Australian Branch Volume 8
Adelaide: RGSSA 1906. First Edition. Paperback. Fine. Adelaide RGSSA 1906. Octavo 12 pages plus 2 plates and a map. Original wrappers; a fine copy. 'In 1846 Mr Horrocks organised what proved his last exploring party and but for the fatal acccident which so unhappily terminated the expedition he would doubtless have left a high record in the history of exploration and would probably have traversed a great deal of the country afterwards explored by his successors Warburton and Stuart'. The journal runs from 29 July 1846 when the expedition set out from Penwortham to 27 August; Horrocks was accidently shot on 1 September near Lake Gill now Lake Dutton 75 miles north-west of Port Augusta. A lengthy death-bed letter dictated by him at Depot Creek on 8 September is also printed here. This issue also contains EITEL E.J.: Social Life in China 20 pages and SOWDEN W.J.: On Pearl-Fishing in North-West Australia 11 pages. McLaren 10029. RGSSA paperback

GILL ST. and others after S. T.
14 Views of Old Adelaide from Sketches in 1840-1849 by S.T. Gill F.R. Nixon S. Calvert and O. Korn
Adelaide: E.S. Wigg 1890. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine. Adelaide E.S. Wigg 1890. Oblong quarto 19 leaves all rectos blank comprising the gilt-pictorial title page by E.C. May 14 full-page tinted lithographic views with tissue-guards the 3-page list of 181 subscribers and the key to plate 5 between plates 4 and 5. Original gilt-decorated half maroon morocco and gilt-lettered brown cloth slightly rubbed at the extremities and lightly bumped on the rear corners; cloth lightly flecked; inner hinge a little loose at the title page; minimal light foxing; essentially a fine copy. Ferguson 9924e but we have seen any number of bindings identical to ours and none as described by Ferguson. He also states that 'The Mitchell Library copy has a pencil note: 200 printed in George Robertson's hand-writing'. In spite of this comment and the 181 subscribers' names in our experience the book is not as rare as these figures would suggest. The fact that this item is essentially the same as Ferguson 9807 with the Galbraith imprint under the gold blocking carrying the Wigg imprint and the Wigg binder's label on the rear pastedown leads us to suspect that the answer has something to do with this change of publisher after the book was printed. Correspondence on this matter is welcome. E.S. Wigg hardcover

The 22 pages of letterpress contain a complete list of Pastoral Leases and a Gazetteer of South Australia. We have identified variant advertising material and its placement. The Northern Territory is represented by four maps each approximately 520 � 400 mm. Ferguson 7981 and 7982 indifferent entries clearly for the same item.

They are extremely rare and the later remainder issue of these volumes did not contain them. Original green ribbed cloth with elaborately patterned blind-stamped sides and gilt-pictorial spines lightly bumped at the extremities and very slightly marked; spines sunned with minimal wear at the ends and in a few spots along the rear joint of the second volume; top edges uncut and now dusty other edges only lightly trimmed; plates a little foxed and offset with occasional light foxing elsewhere; leading edge of two adjacent leaves in the Appendix in Volume 1 slightly chipped due to careless opening of unopened edges; an excellent set.

The blind-stamp of 'The Durdans Roseberry Epsom' appears on four leaves suggesting it passed at some stage through the hands of Archibald Philip Primrose 1847-1929 the 5th Earl of Roseberry British Prime Minister in 1894-95 and a big fan of Australia see the 'Australian Dictionary of Biography'. The armorial bookplate of Novar of Raith Sir Ronald Craufurd Munro Ferguson Viscount Novar of Raith 1860-1934 Governor-General of Australia from 1914 to 1920 is mounted on the pastedown of both volumes.
