SELECT VIEWS OF SYDNEY
In the hands of the Artist, and will speedily be published, price Four Dollars, stitched into a handsome cover, Six Select Views of Sydney and its Environs, dedicated by special permission to Sir John Jamison, President; and to the other Members of the Agricultural and Horticultural Society of New South Wales.

These Engravings will not only be finished in the most superb style, so as to render them worthy of a place in the portfolio of the connoisseur, as superior specimens of the art, but they will also be calculated to exhibit to those at a distance, a true picture of this interesting town, of this our Australian metropolis, and accompanied too with such letter press illustrations as may be necessary.

As the plates of all fine engravings only print a limited number of impressions, and these of course the most perfect at the first; it is therefore respectfully suggested to those who may be desirous of obtaining copies, to insert their names and address into the subscription list as early as possible, so that they may be supplied in the succession of their applications.

Subscription Lists now lay open at the Bank of Australia; the Bank of New South Wales; the Sydney Gazette Office; the Australian Newspaper Office; the Monitor Office; Cummings’ Hotel; Girard’s Hotel; the Australian Hotel; Hill’s Rose and Crown Tavern; and at McNaughton and Rowell’s, King street, the lodgings of J. Carmichael, the Engraver and Proprietor.
