Map of the Cape Colony drawn and engraved by J Rapkin.

The illustrations by H. Warren and engraved by H. Bond. Produced by John Tallis & Company, London & New York.

According to R V Tooley's "Collectors' Guide to Maps of the African Continent and Southern Africa" (p115), this is the undated edition of the 1851 map with the medallion above Cape Town. The guide describes the map as follows:

Vignettes of Entrance to Knysna, Natives, Grahams Town, Cape Town and a Lion. The districts of Beautfort, Coleberg, Somerset and Victoria are shown on this map.

It is 32 x 24cm, and framed behind glass. It is slightly discoloured in the top left hand corner and there is a tear on the right hand side near the bottom edge.
