1809 was a good year

Our local Friday Market here in Muizenberg is filled with lots of good food and handmade designs. One of our favourite market stands is the vintage book section (oh, and the bar - they sell Darling brew, awesome beer). We found these amazing looking pages form an old book published by Longman, Hurst, Rees and Orme in 1809. Love the technical drawings and the distinctive smell of an old book... Had to buy.
