These Stone-Clayton sketches are extremely important historical documents as very little in the way of original drawings of this period have survived, mainly because of the popularity of the camera. These drawings often give the only graphic representation of scenes in Natal and the Transvaal as they were in the eighties and nineties. (Anna H. Smith, City Librarian)
