Hi Donald et al, The image Donald refers to I sent directly to him. I called it 'Old Gentleman Reading Sundial' and is a C18th?? BW drawing (180k) and therefore too big to pass the SML size filter. Sadly I can't recall where I found it many years ago but I'll email copies to the curious on request. Perhaps someone could identify the source as I'd love to know it? Tony Moss. P.S. Donald...glad you find it suits your purpose. T. --- https://lists.uni-koeln.de/mailman/listinfo/sundial
