Two sketches of HMS Helena port broadside view and bow view
Two sheets of diagram-style drawings of the H.M.S. Helena; two drawings per sheet.
Sheet 1: Principle drawing depicts a port-broadside view of the Helena’s standing and running rigging. Second, smaller drawing on the top-right centre of the sheet shows a port-quarter bow view of the standing rigging with a small figure immediately beside the fore; ‘16’ is inscribed to the left of the rudder.
Sheet 2: Top-half depicts a port-quarter view of the ship’s body with indications of the mast and sheets. Bottom-half shows the same from a port-broadside view. Both drawings inscribed ‘eye’(presumably eye-level) on both sides at deck level.
‘Helena’ inscribed in pencil on both sheets.
Stored with PAH4442-PAH4510, PAH4512-PAH4521.
