1975 first edition large format hardcover with dust jacket in very good condition. Numbered 758 of a limited edition. Signed by Pama. Inscription of previous owner on front blank pages. 140 pages.
Daily life in the eighteen-thirties illustrated with the hitherto unpublished Johannesburg Album of sketches by Sir Charles D'Oyly, together with his other Cape Town drawings and those of Frederick Knyvett.
'In 1974 the Africana Museum, Johannesburg, bought an album of 100 pencil drawings by Sir Charles D'Oyly, all made in Cape Town in the 1830's. They give a humorous and unsophisticated view of daily life in the Mother City under the Governorship of Sir Lowry Cole; a picturesque town of some 10,000 inhabitants. These interesting drawings, which have not been published before, are all reproduced in this book and, to make a panorama complete, other Cape Town drawings of D'Oyly have also been added, together with those of his friend Frederick Knyvett.' Editor's note.
