Exhibition - London 1885-86. - Colonial and Indian Exhibition, 1885-86. Report of the Royal Commission for Victoria ...

Melbourne, Govt printer 1887. Foolscap original half morocco; xii,103pp, six autotype or woodburytype photo plates (two folding), six wood engraved plates and a plan. Foxing at each end, still a pleasing handsome copy.A specially bound presentation copy to Melbourne bigwig, Jenkin Collier, one of the commissioners. ¶ The four autotypes are from Lindt photographs and I wondered why they were there until I figured out they must have beeen exhibited and that Lindt gave 6000 copies to the Commission. Among the reports on each class, wine gets the most extensive treatment with a long report by Richard Bannister, a report of Joseph Bosisto's tour of vineyards in France and Spain and a further paper on colonial wines from Bannister.
