I had come to this site looking for pictures of WW1 tanks that I used to help build some toys from. When I came across the A7V picture below while going through family photos, I thought I'd like to share it here. This is a scan directly out of?a family photo album. The photos are glued on to the paper. Jim was...
I want to buy this book. Is it worth it? I hope that it has some colour drawings, not only black and white photographs. Pehaps someone has some samples? Cheers Kamil
Curiouser and curiouser. It might be me, but the origins of the FT that has been restored at Saumur have never become totally clear. The two from the scrapyard went to Ft. Knox; that's definite, even though Major Delbarre of the French Army can be seen inspecting them with an American colleague. We're...
Looking at buying a Retrokit Schneider CA, but can't decide which of the three versions to buy - can anyone help out with when each version was introduced? The first version is obvious, but when did the 1st armoured upgrade and 2nd armoured upgrade enter service?
Many thanks, Rob
TinCanTadpole noticed something interesting about the Imperial War Museum's Mk V Tank now that the wooden left hand Male sponson has been taken off and photographed; ? It's interesting to see the IWM Mk V without the left sponson; the Landships II article says the sponson is a wooden mockup, the reas...
darkroastedblend.com is a (confusing) source of real and imaginative pictures and cheerfully doubious information - I don't think the "Strangest Tanks in History, First World War" links have been given before (I hesitate to put this under the "References" section): [url...
I haven't seen it here, so... I found very interesting... facebook profile with A7V Mephisto: ? http://www.facebook.com/WaltzingMephisto ? It promises to be very interesting - great interior photos in gallery, nice (but short ;( ) film, even photos of children of A7V conquerors... Piece of good...
Last of the WW1 items at Fort Nelson (i'd managed to bring my camera but leave the memory card behind so only had around 25 photos available on the internal memory card), this 6 inch 26 cwt howitzer barrel, apparently displayed at what must be full recoil ?

New list just arrived. Additional sections on ANZAC In The Great War and Medical Services And Comforts In The Great War. Usual section on The Great War in general (30+ items), but nothing landships-friendly this time. Telephone 0161 445 7629. morten.booksellers@lineone.net
Hello, Could anyone tell me about rough ww1 British trench dimensions, depths, widths etc? Was there a general size or was it just how much they wanted to dig? sam

Hello, does anybody knows dimensions of the German 150 mm sFH 13 howitzer (gun carriage) Ps does Herbert Jager "German artillery of world war one" have some drawings of this howitzer? Cheers KAmil
I have never had the patience (or skill) to build highly detailed and accurate models. I have to admit that I always was, and still am, pretty much an "Out of the Box" builder when it comes to models. A few years ago, I began building wooden toys for family and friends. My best friend is in the Ar...
