‎Adelaide: Eustace Reveley Mitford to Volume 3 Number 43 23 October 1869 then Samuel Edward Roberts 1867. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Adelaide Eustace Reveley Mitford to Volume 3 Number 43 23 October 1869 then Samuel Edward Roberts 1867 to 1870. Quarto 166 numbers bound in one volume with each drop-title issue comprising 8 pages the pagination is continuous in each volume. The last issue in each volume is respectively Number 49 Number 52 Number 52 and Number 53; this run lacks only the first 40 numbers of the first volume from Number 1 26 January 1867. Contemporary half leather and cloth lettered in gilt on the spine with the binder's ticket of W.K. Thomas & Co. Adelaide; binding a little rubbed at the extremities with minor wear to the corners; minor signs of use and age to the contents but overall in very good condition. Mounted on the front pastedown is an original albumen paper portrait of Mitford 90 � 58 mm. This collection is not to be confused with the abridged reprint edition published in London in 1882 with a Woodburytype portrait of Mitford an enlarged detail from an example of our portrait. That volume was essentially a memorial to the Mitford years January 1867 to November 1869 'freed from advertisements and unimportant matter' which nowadays means 'lacking all character and a lot of appeal to boot'. Pat Stretton contributed to the 'Australian Dictionary of Biography' the entry for Eustace Reveley Mitford 1811-1869 'satirist'. It is almost short enough to quote in full - it is certainly worthy of being widely circulated! However after sampling a few of her introductory remarks we'll follow her estimable lead and quote Stretton quoting Mitford. He 'found his true vocation in 1867' with 'Pasquin': 'It reviewed plays and books and campaigned on behalf of the oppressed such as prisoners and destitute children but its chief aim was to "aggravate our subscribers in every possible way" and Mitford had a sure eye for what would annoy South Australians most. Introducing the grape was "a great mistake". Democracy was another: "democracy and dishonesty universal suffrage and universal pillage . are synonymous terms and inseparable results". Adelaide's architecture was "mediaeval Clapham Common Gothic with a tendency to the Old Bailey Tuscan". Satire resists description. Here is Mitford at his lethal best: "People in England are profoundly astonished to hear that the land has not cost the Government or the country a single farthing - that in fact well to put it as mildly as possible - that we stole it! - took possession you understand in the Queen's name - just as they used aforetime to burn alive respectable ladies and gentlemen in the name of the Deity - and that when the native rangers attempted to remove the sheep found trespassing on their lands we shot them like dogs also in the name of the Queen - and then sent missionaries - very nice men in white chokers - to inform them of a beautiful new kind of religion which strictly prohibited theft and murder or to covet a blackfellow's land or his lubra or his waddy his boomerang or his beer or anything that is his or any other man's. Of course the blacks were deeply impressed with the sanctity and consistent justice of a religion which was to save their souls but played the very devil with their bodies their lands and their kangaroos. We make as much fuss about permitting settlers to occupy this land as if we had a right to it"'. Mitford died suddenly from a chest infection on Sunday 24 October 1869 as the issue of the following Saturday unhappily informed its readers.

‎Australian Daguerreotypes‎

‎A pair of quarter-plate daguerreotype portraits each approximately 100 � 80 mm of Thomas Radford 1795-1867 and his wife Martha 1796-1867‎

‎The Radfords were born in Devon emigrated to South Australia in October 1838 and lived in the Barossa Valley from the mid-1840s until their death. From the perceived ages of the subjects these images would appear to date from the 1850s. Other later images of the Radfords are held in the State Library of South Australia. They substantiate the identification and confirm that these daguerreotypes by an anonymous photographer are of rural South Australian origin as the Radfords did not leave the colony after they arrived here in 1838. Both images are in excellent condition with the original brass matts one a little tarnished preservers and glass but uncased as found. Daguerreotypes of Australian origin are rare. unknown‎

His growing authority in art matters his self-confidence and abrasive manner and his attitude toward other art schools led to criticism. Critics found Gill a vain man who controlled lucrative and influential art offices and who disdained the democratic brotherhood of art. His supporters admitted that he could be uncompliant and disagreeable but said that he had worked hard was a good judge of the monetary value of pictures saved the board expense and was a courageous and incorruptible curator.
