• Lot Description:
  Midgley, Alfred. The Queensland Illustrated Guide; for the use of Farmers, Fruit Growers, Vignerons
  and Others. With a Map. Octavo, title-page printed in black and red, with nine actual mounted albumen paper photographs, and a folding endpocket map, a touch of foxing as often, original green cloth, title in gilt on the front board, faded manuscript title on spine. Brisbane, James C. Beal, 1888.
• Notes:
  Rare issue with nine mounted photographs: there was another, more commonly seen issue without the photographs, although that ordinary issue is not noted by Ferguson oddly. Prepared to stimulate emigration to Queensland, this work was only distributed in Great Britain. The fine photographs by Poul C. Poulson are very evocative of the period in frontier Queensland. Ferguson, 12573; Holden, 76.
