Summary
A monochrome halftone photomechanical print stereograph of a bush scene in Natal, South Africa. The 2 images, with rounded upper corners, are mounted on white card, with rounded corners and there is a space of 3mm between them. The view shows a view of rough and virtually imprenetratable bush, of trees and creepers. In the foreground is a water feature with stones at its edge and there are possible stepping stones in the water itself. There is also a faint path running up the bank from the waters edge. Markings: Recto, printed in black and white on the right hand side, "The "B-P" Series". Verso, printed in black, " (Copyright.) A BIT OF BUSH IN NATAL. The bush in Natal for some miles inland is of a particularly thick and interwoven character.In many places it is absolutely impossible to force your way unaided through the mass of creepers and undergrowth.
