Page 2 of 'Copies of Rock-paintings, southern belt'. This list collates localities (grouped by district, in Area 1) with forms, colours, and visual material for Joyce and Mollie Van der Riet's 'More rock paintings in South Africa: from the coastal belt between Albany and Piquetberg' (1940). It is conceivably part of Dorothea Bleek's organisational calculus for Methuen & Co. Ltd. 'Photo[s]' either refers to the monochrome photographs of George Stow's copies spanning J1.1.1 to J1.1.50 (in Series J of UCT's BC 151) or, more likely, those taken by Joyce and Mollie Van der Riet. Jill Weintroub (2015: 128) notes that most of the 'in the open' short-exposure photographs taken by the Van der Riet sisters during fieldwork in Area 1 were failures. The lists reflect this shortfall. The Van der Riets' 'site' photographs, mentioned in D3.2.7, are not in BC 151. Chapters 5, pp. 103-122, and 6, pp. 123-142, of Jill Weintroub's 'Dorothea Bleek: A Life of Scholarship. A biography by Jill Weintroub' (2015) explain this material.
