History of item: 

In early 2011 these drawings were for sale at Tarlo and Graham 50 Chapel Street Windsor. (Possibly they still are.) The asking price was beyond the resources of the EMHS but Tarlo and Graham graciously agreed that we could photograph them for our catalogue and publish them on our web site. They were obtained by Tarlo and Graham from a clearance sale but the details were not available.
