About This Item
(Johannesburg: The Geological Society of South Africa, [1926]). Ownership inscription of K. H. Barnard, curator of the South African Museum, to upper cover. Offprint from 'The Transactions of the Geological Society of S. Africa', Vol. XXVIII., 1925. 246 x 187 mm; side-stitched printed wrappers; pp. [19-25]; 3 plates, with explanatory tissue-guards. Wrappers a little sunned, lightly soiled, with trace of foxing. Good. "This paper is the outcome of recent visits paid to certain mountain areas in the Western Province, for the specific purpose of investigating some peculiar intraformational folding below the Upper Shale Band of the Table Mountain Sandstone, of which no previous record appears to have been made in South African Geological literature. The account of the Wellington Sneeuwkop has been written by one of us, that of the Somerset Sneeuwkop area by the other two. The conclusions as to the origin of the folding embody, however, the views of all three authors." .
