The origin of this compendium is unknown - it is a collection of 100 line drawings of tanks from around 1916/17 to perhaps 1920. The drawings are all on linen paper, and are oversized: this has meant they have had to be reduced in many cases by varying amounts. Nevertheless the detail they give of early British tanks (especially the Mark V and variants) is remarkable, and even for non-tank readers they are too interesting to miss.
A full sized set of these drawings can be made available on request.
