'Sirius' (1782)
Scale 1:48. A printed plan showing the standing rigging of HMS 'Sirius' (1782), an armed storeship. The plan is signed 'Fred W. Spring'.
A note on the plan reads 'Warning according to the spar dimensions given on 4127 (behind the strip of brown paper) this reconstructed plan is wrong; DJL [David J. Lyon] 8/1978'.
NB. The reference 4127 probably refers to plan ZAZ5405, which shows the armed transport HMS 'Berwick' (1781), which was later renamed 'Sirius'.
