Lovely map surrounded by a delicately engraved border and including steel engraved vignettes of Adelaide, Natives on a Catamaran, Dingo, or Australian Dog, Nymphicus, and the Seal of South Australia. The map covers the region of Spencer Gulf to Encounter Bay and includes Kangaroo Island. Several mining districts are noted. Tiny splits in fold margins (repaired with archival tape), else very fine, with good margins.
