And refined logic
To turn Vulcan't
Into Vulcan.

So a Quagga was a form of Zebra which lived in South Africa before becoming extinct in the late 19th century (i.e. around or just after the time this engraving was published). The Quagga got its name from its call, which sounded like "kwa-ha-ha".

A gentleman drives 'Butler's Motor Tricycle' in a full suit and bowler hat. Not the safest by the looks of it, but a 110% hipster vibe going on there. From the 10th edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica (1902-3) as seen (and scanned) in our collections.
