Annals of the
Natal Government Museum
This journal deals almost entirely
with South African matters - geological, zoological,
botanical and ethnological,
but papers on meteorology or other scientific subjects may occasionally
be included. Size ~10x6".
Many plates fold-out. In
addition to plates listed, there are text-figures. Please ask
if you need more information on any issue.
There is a shift from frameable artwork to photographs and figures
through the years.
I have listed the plates (not other illustrations) by the paper
through volume 8, because these tend to be those with lovely,
frameable artwork.
Very good condition unless otherwise noted. Owner's stamp. A few have mildly bumped corners or edges, or faint soil on covers. For the earlier volumes, the paper over the spine may be a bit rough, especially at the spine ends.
Volume(Part) #number. Almost entirely in English. Title may be shortened.
