1880127200Adelaide: E. Spiller Government Printer 1880. Very Good. Adelaide E. Spiller Government Printer 1880s. Sheet size 563 × 434 mm printed surface approximately 465 × 340 mm. A couple of light creases one affecting the right-hand margin of the image; a few small chips and tears at the edges well clear of the printed surface and easily matted out; in very good condition. An original large-format chromolithograph from John Ednie Brown's 'Forest Flora of South Australia' 1882-1890 numbered 26 in the bottom right-hand corner of the sheet. <p>From soon after publication Harcourt Barrett was confronted with a popular conception that Rosa Fiveash was wholly or principally responsible for the plates as published. Eventually enough became too much . 'The entire work as issued from the Government Printing Office consisted of nine parts each part containing five plates making a total of forty-five plates. Of these forty-five plates Miss Fiveash only supplied thirty-two drawings in watercolour of the centre or main branch only. Miss Camilla Hammond sketched the Banksia Ornata and Mrs Smart sketched the native cherry and it was from these sketches that the drawings upon stone were made. The remaining eleven plates and title page together with all the additional work consisting of the various woods barks seed-vessels botanical sections and details of the flowers were drawn direct upon the stones from photos and natural specimens wholly and solely by me during the time I held the position of Chief Lithographer at the Government Printing Office. And further I may state that not only did I make the drawings which consisted of forty-five outlines and 400 colour-stones but was held responsible by Mr Brown for their proper reproduction in all their natural colours a matter in which he was very particular' 'Evening Journal' 23 April 1900.

Spiller the Government printer of Adelaide occupies the foremost rank'. <p>Although offered primarily as a fine example of colonial binding the Acts contained in this volume numbers 196 to 238 as well as nine Private Acts are not without interest. There are numerous railways and tramways acts as well as acts on subjects as diverse as Chinese immigration the Adelaide Synagogue mining inebriates and the substantial 'No. 237.
