I have searched for a spanish site with a number of images with little success. The best link was on the "links" page of the NASS site, www.sundials.org/links. The one listed as "Relojes de Sol" has a page with links to pages having images.
Many of these pages show some very "modern" forms. I have tried to find out if sundials were used in the California missions. The curators at two museums, one in Newport Beach and one at Santa Barbara, could find no references. The only sundials seem to be 19th century horizontals that were added in recent times. If there were ever any verticals on some walls they have either not survived or have not been recognized as such.
