Hugely Rare 1938 British & I Lions in S Africa Rugby Scrapbook: Superb unique memorabilia. Fabric bound, large hard boarded 23" x 13" x 1.25" handmade, decorated and curated work of art by a S African recording the background to and progress of Sam Walker's British & I Lions trek just prior to WW2. Stunning hand-drawn Lion & Springbok cover, calligraphic/copperplate handwriting, careful cutting and composition of the many articles and judicious use of photographs and stats make these 104 cream-paged efforts a joy, over 85 years on. Detailed, loving, careful, well-preserved work: one of a kind! VG
