Way back in the second world war, and for a few years afterward, a London firm called Modelcraft, (home of Micromodels), issued a series of small scale ship plans. These covered warships of the time at 50ft to 1inch and merchant ships at 100ft to the inch. I have been collecting these warship plans for some time now, through auction sites and bookseller sites and now have approximately 2/3rds of them. Is there a like minded individual out there who may be interested in these that might help me complete my file? It is interesting that, while a lot of the major vessels are included the Japanese navy is limited and later ships don't appear (there is no Bismark, for example), Possibly due to information restrictions at the time. |
