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.

1929réf. 142560Adelaide: Harry Carew Nott 1929. Fine. Adelaide Harry Carew Nott 1929. A commercial photograph album oblong quarto 230 × 318 mm comprising 4 card leaves cord-bound in overlapping card covers with 21 gelatin silver photographs 84 × 136 mm or the reverse loosely attached with photocorners on both sides of the leaves and the inside surface of the covers; all photographs are captioned in white ink on the mount. Cord-bound commercial album stamped in blind 'Portraiture'; covers slightly marked and a little worn at the corners; the contents are in fine condition the last photograph is creased and cracked at one corner. A lengthy article related to this event appeared in 'The Advertiser' Thursday 23 May 1929: 'The Victorian section of the Australian Aero Club will conduct an aerial pageant at the Essendon Aerodrome near Melbourne on Saturday afternoon. The programme of events includes the Aerial Derby for which over 20 machines have been entered. Of these about eight will represent New South Wales and eight Victoria. South Australia will also have a strong representation. Seven planes will leave the Parafield Aerodrome for Melbourne this morning at 9.30 if the weather permits. The following planes will comprise the formation: D.H. 60 Gipsy Moth G-AUIB D.H. Moth V-HUAM D.H. Moth V-EUAR D.H. Gipsy Moth G-AUIV D.H. Gipsy Moth G-AUKO Avro Avian G-AUSY and probably the De Havilland "Old Gold" passenger machine. The first three are Aero Club planes and the others are privately owned. Flying-Officer J.A. Mollison Aero Club instructor will be leader of the formation and Mr. C.A. Hewitt will be deputy-leader. Others making the flight to Melbourne are Messrs. N. Birks J.A. Jukes A.H. Wilkins E.B. Lawson P. Knapman F. Wellington S. Hamilton L. Wood J. Churchill Smith secretary of Aero Club and Dr. H.C. Nott. The flight to Essendon will be made via Nhill Victoria. Friday will be spent by the airmen in tuning up engines for the races on the following day'. The first eight photographs were taken at Parafield Aerodrome in outer-suburban Adelaide with portraits of Nott and Wood identified. These are followed by two at Nhill Aerodrome 'Mollison refuelling' and 'Lawson'; two at Ararat Aerodrome 'on Racecourse'; and eight taken at Rockbank 28 kms west of Melbourne. These are captioned 'Mollison taking off in "1B"'; 'Hewitt'; 'Nott in "A5"'; Lawson Mollison Hewitt & Wellington éxamining "A17"'; 'Hewitt Mollison Lawson & Wellington'; 'Nott Mollison Lawson & Wellington'; and 'Mollison Lawson & Hewitt'. The last one taken from the air is captioned 'Crashed Aero at Nhill'. The Nhill Aviation Heritage Centre website records that on 23 May 1929 'J.A. Mollison arrived from Adelaide with 6 aircraft. One crash-landed at old Dimboola road aerodrome instead of landing at New site at Halpin Park'. The pilot was possibly Lin Wood. Harry Carew Nott unknown
1864réf. 142931Adelaide: The Author 1864. Fine. Adelaide The Author 1864. Eleven albumen paper photographs approximately 88 × 134 mm mounted on the recto of individual cards approximately 165 × 240 mm neatly captioned below the plate with the title at the head of the first one with all captions by George Hamilton himself. A few light spots and marks to some of the cards; essentially in fine condition with the photographs uniformly rich in colour. The Art Gallery of South Australia has all 11 original artwork - pen and ink with wash - in its collection. The 'Adelaide Observer' on Saturday 27 August 1864 contains a review of Hamilton's recently self-published book 'a well-conceived well-written neatly-printed and elegantly-illustrated brochure under the above title'. It describes at length the illustrations '11 in number photographed from the author's drawings by Colonel Biggs Mr. Baines and Professor Hall and they bear ample evidence of the artistic taste as well as the correct judgment displayed in the spirited originals'. Robert Holden 'Photography in Colonial Australia. The Mechanical Eye and the Illustrated Book' 1988 describes this book and one other Molesworth Jeffrey's 'Various Exercises and Fragments in Metre by Divers Authors' Hobart 1864 as being the 'first recorded use of original photographs as illustrations in commercially produced and dated books' in Australia. His descriptive bibliography records that the published work indeed contains 'Photographs of eleven drawings . by Colonel Briggs sic from rough sketches by the author. It would appear that these images were printed eleven to a sheet and then arranged in random order throughout the text'. His collation of the three copies in the State Library of South Australia indicates the individual print sizes range from 20 × 35 mm to a maximum of 40 × 60 mm. The present offering clearly predates the published use of these images and its presentation is much to be preferred. The first and most obvious difference is the superior size and quality of the prints. However the captions greatly enhance the images; when they are read and viewed in the intended order numbers 1-11 are lightly pencilled in the top right-hand corner of the cards this becomes a proto-photobook of the highest order . and far from being a prosaic account of how to look after a horse as the title might suggest it is a searing indictment of the widespread ill-treatment of horses. 'Mr. Hamilton proceeds with pen and pencil to describe and portray some of the trials a horse has to undergo from the time his liberty is first invaded in the bush until in the last scene of all that ends this painful history he is reduced to the drudgery of a hackney car'. See Ferguson 10180b and 10181a; Holden 50 and 51 plus pages 13-21. Both bibliographies contain errors. 11 items. The Author] unknown

1890réf. 109514Adelaide: Printed for the Proprietor and Publisher A. Timmann at the 'Pioneer' Office 1890. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Adelaide Printed for the Proprietor and Publisher A. Timmann at the 'Pioneer' Office 1890 and 1891. Octavo 13 issues bound in one volume 148 pages continuous pagination plus the large folding supplement to Number 10 March 7 1891 a broadside 455 × 335 mm with illustrations. Contemporary flush-cut quarter leather and stippled cloth lettered in gilt on the front cover; neat repairs to the leather at the head and foot of the spine; acidic newsprint used for the last two numbers uniformly tanned; overall in excellent condition. The recto of the large folding supplement to Number 10 contains the text with three line illustrations of an article that 'appeared originally in the "SA Register" in six short letters': 'Protection or Freedom Our Manufactories Our People and Our Land Values'. The verso of the broadside is devoted entirely to advertisements some illustrated with large engravings. The final issue of the journal was Volume 5 Number 5 24 December 1892. Although the Single Tax League of South Australia figures prominently throughout a notice printed at the foot of the last page of the first issue suggests the journal had a broader platform. 'The publication of "The Pioneer" is undertaken solely with a view to stimulate thought and promote discussion and if approved of it is hoped will find the ready support of all Friends of Reform. The labor involved is given voluntarily and gratuitously; any profits made will go entirely towards extending its range of operations.' The journal ran for 57 issues ceasing publication with Volume V Number 5 24 December 1892. Provenance: Arthur W. Piper 1865-1936 a South Australian Supreme Court judge with his small name-stamp and personal library number 677 on the front pastedown. Printed for the Proprietor and Publisher, A.

1919réf. 108343Adelaide 1919. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Adelaide circa 1919. A custom-made photograph album 190 × 200 mm containing 6 card leaves with an original gelatin silver photograph mounted on both sides of each leaf with interleaved tissue-guards. Each photograph is approximately 135 × 95 mm. Half leather and cloth lettered in full in gilt on the front cover with 'The Eucalypts' in gilt on the spine; leather discoloured and moderately rubbed with slight wear in a few areas; some tiny paint spots near the head of the front cover; tissue-guards a little foxed and offset; marginal silvering-out to five prints; overall in very good condition. All but the first portrait is signed and only the last one contains an additional inscription the date '10.1.19'. The State Library of South Australia has another example of this album enabling us to confirm the identities where the handwriting was unclear. Ministers of religion lawyers doctors and architects predominate. The subjects are Reverend A.H. Gifford possibly A.E. Gifford; Benjamin Benny 1869-1935 senator and solicitor; George McEwin 1873-1945 lawyer and philanthropist; Edward Erskine Cleland 1869-1943 barrister and judge; Alfred McBain Bonython 1865-1954 architect; Sir James Wallace Sandford 1879-1958 merchant and politician; Reverend Wilfred Harris Unitarian minister returned to England in 1918; Dr Herbert Frank Shorney 1878-1933 opthalmologist; Sir Thomas John Mellis Napier 1882-1976 later a SA Supreme Court judge; Harold Reid; Edward Warner Benham 1872-1948 lawyer and academic; and Francis Hedley Counsell 1864-1933 architect. The subtitle is a misquote from 'Among the Sandhills' by Adela Florence Nicolson née Cory 1865-1904 an English poet who wrote under the pseudonym Laurence Hope 'The scented orange bushes check the breeze Granting in tribute many waxen stars And aromatic Eucalyptus trees Defy the sun with grey-green scimitars'. We have saved the best until the end: we purchased this item decades ago and have postponed cataloguing it innumerable times not knowing who 'The Eucalypts' were. We have finally solved the puzzle by the simple expedient of spending untold hours on it. We eventually discovered the lengthy biographical sketch of Alfred Bonython compiled by Giles Walkley for the University of SA's database on architects accessible online. Among many other interesting details he records that 'At the age of 42 Bonython became the father of a fourth daughter . Determinedly reviving his literary activities he joined both at their outset in 1910 Lady Symon's Poetry Society and the "liberal Christian" discussion group The Eucalypts Club . SRG 252'. hardcover
