Facsimile reproductions of the original lithographs with a new introduction by Frank R. Bradlow.

Publisher's pink paper-covered boards with brown cloth spine.

6 pages of text and facsimile reproductions of the four lithographs.

'The Four Views of Cape Town, Cape of Good Hope, are today among the most difficult of the so-called 'Bowler-prints' to obtain and even the S. A. Public Library does not possess a set. They were originally sold in a printed wrapper, and first advertised for sale in Sam Sly's Journal on the 18th of January, 1844 and the South African Commercial Advertiser of the 20th January 1844.

A very good copy.
