2 I~I======'A=-=• ==v~6~8 ~7 ~19~5~3~===dt1 WORKING DRAWINGS by HAROLD A. UNDERHILL, M.C., A.M.I.E.S. FOR SCALF SHIP MODELS

The drawings described in this list have been produced to meet the needs of those wishing to build authentic scale models, and every care has been taken to ensure accurate detail. In the case of naflled ships they have been compiled from the original builders' plans and specification, personal survey of the actual vessel, or both. Where possible, any changes made during the life of the ship have been noted on the drawings, butt in cases where this has not been done, any information on the subject will always be welcomed.

U NTEARABLE PRJ NTS The construction of a ship model is the work of several months or in the case of elaborate models, perhaps a year or !»>re. During all this time the prints are being constantly handled or subjected to rough use on the work bench, and soon become " dog-eared " or torn. This can be obviated by having their edges reinforced, and at the slight extra cost shown in the price list we can supply prints with at" untearable binding all round. /

TERMS Prices quoted are CASH WITH ORDER. PLEASE PRINT NAME AND ADDRESS IN BLOCK LETTERS.

TYPE OF PRINT All prints are supplied black line on white paper.

OVERSEAS ORDERS It will avoid much delay if overseas customers will make payment by International Money Order in sterling (£ p.). The serial number of the money order must be quoted in the customer's original letter for the purpose of identification, since when received in this country such money orders do not include the name and address of the sender. Parcels cannot be sent overseas C.O.D. or by air mail. Neither International Postal Exchange Coupons, Cash, or Notes can be accepted in payment for orders.
