A very interesting book about the history of various schools in the Transvaal Province, with many B&W photos and 22 charming illustrations by the esteemed SA artist, Walter Battiss (see photos for 2 examples).  The outer softcover shows its age and has come loose from the binding in places but the inner pages are in good condition.  More photos available on request.
