Engravings of people and places throughout the world mounted on loose pages from a scrapbook. The majority of the engravings relate to Africa, particularly South Africa. Many are of charts and maps. The original pictures date from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Most of the prints are undated, but the dates that are given would suggest that the scrapbook was compiled during the second half of the nineteenth century. Original titles and captions have been recorded as found and may contain offensive, inappropriate or outdated terms. They have been retained to reflect the context of the collection's creation.
