With the bookplate of the Kew botanist A.A. Bullock, and the pencil signature of John Hutchinson. [Simon van der Stel (14 O…ctober 1639 - 24 June 1712) was the first Governor of the Dutch Cape Colony (1691), the settlement at the Cape of Good Hope. He was interested in botany, establishing vineyards Groot and Klein Constantia, and producing a famous dessert wine. He is considered one of the founders of South African viticulture. In 168586, he left the remains of his farm and took part in an expedition to the Copper Mountains at Springbok (Namaqualand), where he made topographic and geographic, botanical and zoological observations. The town of Stellenbosch (founded in 1679) was named after him and Simon's Town is also named after him, as well as the Simonsberg mountain.
