I love the cover of the latest Hitchcocks catalogue: the line drawing of the cross-section of the Bullet engine, and I think it deserves to be a poster for the garage wall. I can't find any indication that copies can be bought (paper or electronic), but does anyone know any different?

I think the drawing is one of the ones that Allan and I bid on when the Reg Thomas papers came up for auction last year. I bid for the REOC but it all got too heady and Allan stepped in. However, he also has other drawings which I know he is thinking of making more use of, so watch this space! The drawing on the cover is actually a GA or General Arrangement which although dimensionally accurate is intended for all departments in a design office so they can plan the layout of other components, eg frame, wheels etc.

And it still deserves to be a poster or a tee shirt
