I am doing my best to get drawings but, as you can imagine, after four years of war, we are having no end of a tea-party sorting them out particularly in view of the fact that someone found our only set of prints and proudly contributed them to the local Salvage Week!

However, I think we have all the drawings, and the job is going on with the maximum amount of expedition.
