The history of the country is to be illustrated by 4,500 tiles, with pictures in blue.
The pictures will begin with the landing of Van Riebeek at the Cape, and will carry on the story right up to the present day on the Rand.
Below these will be scenes con- nected with the history of the country, and then will follow illus. trations of South Africa and South African life.
Old High Dutch texts, painted in: archaic characters, will be in the middle.
No effort has been spared to make the work a success. Old prints, books, photographs and manuscripts have been obtained from all over the country, and pic- tures from them have been copied. Material for illustrations has been also obtained from museums,
